Go here http://www.akaipro.com/contentmgr/showd ... hp/id/4053
and download the newest OS.
Put it on your CF card and try to reinstall .

Put the cf card it and hold down the mode button then press DISK pad 3
Then press USB pad 4



That is the first step to isolate the problem.
Keep us posted,and good luck.

Sorry I have to add. when I first got my 5k I had to install the ram myself.
I was so excited I began to fit it but was not sure it was square to the board.
I switched on the machine and there was just a white line through the display
I tried to yank if off to refit it and a plastic sleeve came right off..
Exposing around forty delicate gold female sockets.
I had calm down and straighten my pins and put the plastic sleeve back on.
After refitting and making sure it was square I switched my 5k on and all has worked like a charm since.
Point is those 128 memory board can be pretty tricky to fit.
Get Akai to do it or an authorised dealer... ???
