1.⁠ ⁠Ensure that you are using the cable given to you in the box. Using any other cables that are not USB-C to USB-A can mess up the device. These steps are explicitly listed on the product page as a warning!

2.⁠ ⁠Try removing the SD card and inserting it again to reset the system

3.⁠ ⁠Because of the large volume of games, the single SD card may struggle with handling the load. Users experience better gameplay when they use two SD cards and import their own ROMs into the secondary card.
