  • Help required with Bela Board not turning on

I recently implemented a code on Bela for real-time audio storage. However, when I tried to run the board afterwards, it started blinking red and blue LEDs continuously. Since then, I haven't been able to get it running or access the IDE through the browser. Upon checking the SD card on my computer, I found it was corrupted. I formatted the card and restored its original contents, but now Bela still won't boot (there are no blue LED on Bela). Can anyone help me resolve this issue?

    That was probably a spurious warning, unless you were on a Linux computer when you checked it.

    This is where things went wrong: you may have done the flashing procedure wrong. Make sure you follow the instructions here to the letter: https://learn.bela.io/using-bela/bela-techniques/managing-your-sd-card/
