As soon as you see the initial "splash screen" press the central button of the navigation control and keep it held in until the screen flashes white. Release the button and the reflash will begin automatically.

Good luck!
Thanks, HarryT,

I will try that, even though I have little hope. I have to get over my Bookeen'd-out state. Right now I just don't want to have anything to do with it. You defend them, and maybe you have your reasons. But, as was mentioned above, this device is just to fragile. Certainly it was in my bag with other objects, but the objects were certainly not heavy (I have pen, compact, lip gloss, things of that nature rather than a sledgehammer in my bag), Cybook was in it's covers, I DO NOT sit on my bag, I do not throw my bag, no accidents happened to the device, it was not even dropped once. If it still cracked under those circumstances, then it is too fragile.

I have no control of temperature changes, and did not buy this device to keep it in a vault with controlled climate. That was computers 30 years ago. That should not be reader today. Bookeen needs to do some work on this, for it serves it purpose very poorly indeed. It is supposed to be PORTABLE device. How is it portable, if it needs to be treated like murano glass sculpture?
