Did you try to load your files from another compact flash card? If your card is the original one, you should change it.

i try it with a 64gb kinston card,the original was a kingston too,which card is the best ?what will you say?

I don’t know, but I just had a crash with the original card so I bought a new one. The fact you can’t load files could be a card issue, and you should backup all your work and buy a new card, at least to be able to test if the issue is linked to the card or not.

Try looking into your CF card slot without a card in it. Do all the spikes look straight?

Can you provide bit more info on what exactly is happening?

What does the screen look like?
What do the trig buttons look like?
What project is it trying to load?
What is the contents of the project folder on the CF card?
