BM5 not booting up

3 replies

My BM5 died last night 

When it tries to boot up the following happens

Bang and Olufsen logo appears

Hard drives do work

Then a windows error dialog box appears saying 'Invalid Picture'

Then screens goes blank

End of story

I can still hear the hard drives going but nothing

Any suggestions greatly appreciated

Attach a keyboard/mouse and on boot-up, see if you can F8 or similar into the Windows boot options for recovery.

Select Recovery and go.

Don't have access to my BS5/BM5 at the moment but that is the general approach.

Takes 20-odd minutes and then re-boots to B&O

Thanks for quick reply 

It's back up and running just need to reset settings back as they were

Just have to say this proves to me that this site is the best one on the net

Once again thanks Mr 10Percent
