Ryan555 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 If you plug in a keyboard to the Pi and use the same key does it crash. If not then probably wired wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What model? Pi's can be completely unreliable depending on the card. Also how did you format it? I doubt the encoder would be the issue as you said you've plugged in the USB keyboard instead and the esc key does the same thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There might be some saved settings in the config files with the image you got Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
