Hahah this is quite the ordeal!! Welcome to the forums.

If it was a 100% run, unless there’s a name involved with the save file, you can just download a complete save file online. He will never know. 😉

If you can remember the process you took restoring the OS, post it here. There could have been a missing step. Also, if you remember what version, write it down too.

Naturally, I am biased to recommend my own image; DEOT+ v2. It even has a boot up sound of Megaman’s Buster charging, and a few other bonuses. There are some instructions on how to flash it in the first post of this thread:

> [@Custom D.E.O.T. V2.0+/Clockwork OS v0.5 image - With customised DEOT interface, Kernel 5.7, Optional 1400MHz OC, Debian 10 Buster, Retroarch 1.9.0, Mupen64+ plus more! (Current build: 200903)](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/custom-d-e-o-t-v2-0-clockwork-os-v0-5-image-with-customised-deot-interface-kernel-5-7-optional-1400mhz-oc-debian-10-buster-retroarch-1-9-0-mupen64-plus-more-current-build-200903/5088):

> Similar to my [previous DEOT custom build based on 0.4](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/custom-d-e-o-t-v1-0-clockwork-os-v0-4-image-with-updated-kernel-5-3-6-latest-lima-drivers-ra1-8-1-mupen64-and-much-more-current-version-191122/4742), I have put together a new image, based on the ClockWork OS 0.5. This is the same as the official 0.5 image, just with a lot of updates, and quality of experience optimisations. You don’t need the DEOT edition Gameshell to use this. The official DEOT image is much older, and behind the official 0.5 image. This custom image is the bridge to get the best of both worlds.

If he’s still using the original OS, anything made that’s 0.5 or newer would be a significant upgrade.

If you did write the image properly, or if you want try and boot up the gameshell with your original image, ref doing it with the USB power plugged in, and also try pushing the hidden reset button. Check out this thread for a similar problem.

> First, lets talk about the whole not turning on thing. Are you using the one I just uploaded today? I actually haven’t tested it myself yet, ie the image. I’ve been… very tired! Haha. So I’ll get onto that to confirm it working soon. But theoretically it should work. I run the exact script to prepare my images every time. Have you tried my response to your [other thread?](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/clockworkpi-wont-turn-on-now/5774/2) I have a theory regarding when it doesn’t turn on. If you try and turn the gameshell on, when there is no SD card in the slot…

See how things work with this info. 🙂 Good Luck!
