Brand new Prusa mini in boot loop

[Apologies for the cross post, I noticed this forum section is a better fit after already posting in another section]

I just assembled my Prusa mini, and when I power it on, it seems to be in a boot loop:

- Wizard/Welcome screen
- I click "YES"
- Bootloader 1.0.0 screen, fan comes on
- Verify progress bar goes from 0 to 100%
- Fan turns off
- Loading screen appears with version 4.0.5
- Another progress bar goes from 0 to 100%
- Back to Welcome screen

Any ideas what could lead to that and how I can fix it?

Please ignore, user error, the printer is working fine.

I didn't realize that I have to press the wheel in to accept a menu choice. I pressed the little rectangular button instead, apparently that performs a reset.

You mentioning to "click the wheel" made me realize how the UI works, thanks!

RE: Brand new Prusa mini in boot loop

I start with loading the firmware again. Put the latest version on your USB stick. Turn off the printer, plug in the USB stick then turn the printer on. When you see the first load screen click the wheel (I think you have to click it twice). It should find the firmware on the USB stick and ask you if you want to load it.
