If we get this information from the start, it makes it easier for us to provide a fast and
professional service.
What to do after a crash?
In most cases your play will have been saved (recover.asc). In this case you got a popup explaining
this and returned to the login screen.
• Log in again.
If you don't return to the login screen, which is extremely unlikely you need to restart the console.
• Press Esc if the front panel seems frozen.
• Try resetting the console using the reset button on the back, in the middle.
• If none of these efforts work, contact your local ETC Support.
Making a crash or bug report
If you have the possibility, try to reproduce the problem by repeating your actions. If you can send us
a description of how to repeat the problem reliably, we are much very likely to solve it rapidly.
