not respond anymore, try to reset it: press the
button for 15 seconds (the ARCHOS will shut

If this does not work, you can also press the
“master reset” button located underneath the

If your ARCHOS does not respond correctly, or does not show certain songs or
videos that you have copied to it, try using the “Repair and Formatting Tools”
(see:
Customer Assistance Settings
).
If using the “Repair and Formatting Tools” did not solve your problem, you can
try a system recovery. It allows you to repair the hard drive, format it, etc.
Press and hold the button to turn on your device.
When the screen turns on, immediately press and hold the Volume + button until
the Recovery mode starts (white screen).
Since the system recovery mode is activated, the touchscreen is currently dis-
abled. To move from an option to another, use the volume buttons. To validate
an option, press the ON/OFF button.
The system recovery mode gives you several options:
“No”
cancels the system recovery.
