      Looking for help as I’ve kinda forgot the ins and outs of the BS5 and it’s settings.

      A few years ago, I gave my Son my BS5 as his Uni music box beater. The head unit was ok but the BM5 cabinet has gone somewhat sticky. So after being down for a number of months, his BS5 has had issues booting up again. I briefly played around with it and went through recovery mode but still no final boot up.

      The BS5 is indicating a windows SE component is corrupted (forgot which sys file).

      Question is….how do I recover this. I think the B&O shell makes it impossible to access or repair the OS……so it’s in through the USB port with a bootable drive.

      Does anyone know if I should repair the OS and will it delete the B&O BM5 shell or will the Beotool fix everything – OS and BS5 shell?

      Please let me know if you have any ideas?

          Hi Thanks. Fully aware of that link.

          My question is how to repair the windows system failure? does the tool fix (windows) or just the B&O wrapper for BS5 or both?

          Regards
