Korg M3 freezes during start up

Post by 404bekawe »

Hi Forum members,
today I switched on my keyboard and it freezes while loading the first block of instruments (pianos etc).
On the screen top, on the left side an orange bar appeared reading:
"" ARM CPU DATA ABORTED "".
A cold whack goes my spine down :( !!
I turned the mains off, and after a few seconds on again with the same result.
What happened? Saturday it worked perfect an normally.
Any ideas?
If this have a 'users solution' I appreciate a hint how to proceed.
Thanks!

you may try to do a hard reset to fabric configuration (something like press 2+enter while powering on, but not sure this is the right combination).

if this does not work, try to reload the OS.

us even this does not help, i guess you have to send M3 to repairing center

Hi, thanks for writing.
I'd to reset the M3 two times with the correct key combination.
Then - OS reloaded. Now it works again. 8)
Also found how to set the M3 to USB mode, to observe the content on the pc :)
