> 2480 "Hangs" on Boot Up, What Now? <

The number one cause of the VS-2480 boot up problems have to do with data corruption on either the project it is trying to load, or in the file that tells the 2480 "where the projects are" in that partition.

The way you get past this problem is to hold down the two buttons over Fader #4 while turning on the 2480 and booting up. 

This forces the 2480 to boot up without loading the default (i.e. last) project. Unfortunately, it also clears the file that tells the 2480 where the projects were located on that partition, and it now appears to the 2480 as an EMPTY PARTITION!

If you have backup copies of those files, you can simply start loading projects back into that empty partition.

However, if  you need to recover those files, it will require removing the hard drive from the 2480 and putting it into a PC. Easy enough if you have a 2480HD, but if you have a 2480CD or 2480DVD unit, it requires taking apart the unit to reach the hard drive.

If you want to try (or learn about) recovering projects after a data corruption, go to: VS2480 Hard Drive Recovery Procedure
