NV+ not going into the boot options
Is there any known tricks for getting an NV+ into the boot menu? I'm trying to do a USB os install due to an OS Index error but maybe once in every 100+ tries the NAS won't go into the boot menu. I...
- This morning I fired up the NAS and it did go into the boot menu but this time the LCD was dark and letting go of the power switch had no effect. It just kept cycling though the options (all disk LEDs blink every 5 secs). I tried a few more times and back to the old issue of not going into boot options.
I'm officially calling this NAS dead. đ. Even if I recovered it, there would be no confidence in it lasting long so it's just not worth it.
Thanks for the help though, I really appreciate it. Time to start looking for a new one.

What instructions are you using for accessing the boot menu? It doesn't sound like you are doing it correctly. See here:
