#### Section II - Launching SafeB9SInstaller
1. Reinsert your SD card into your device
1. Power on your device
1. Launch Nintendo 3DS Sound
![]({{ "/images/screenshots/soundhax-welcome.png" | absolute_url }})
{: .notice--info}
1. If you've never opened Nintendo 3DS Sound before and get tips on how to use it from a bird icon, go through all of the bird tips, then close the app normally and relaunch it
+ In this situation, launching Soundhax immediately would cause these tips to appear on every launch of the Nintendo 3DS Sound until this is done
1. Go to `/SDCARD`, then play "<3 nedwill 2016"
+ This may take many tries
+ If it freezes, force the console to power off by holding the power button, then try again
+ If your console displays a red and white screen *and* your console is on system version 9.4.0, 9.5.0, or 9.6.0, try following [Homebrew Launcher (Soundhax)](homebrew-launcher-(soundhax))

#### Section IV - Configuring Luma3DS
1. Your device should have rebooted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
+ If you get a black screen, [follow this troubleshooting guide](troubleshooting#boot-related-issues-on-modded-devices)
1. Use the (A) button and the D-Pad to turn on the following:

+ **"Show NAND or user string in System Settings"**
1. Press (Start) to save and reboot
+ If you get an error, just continue the next page
At this point, your console will boot to Luma3DS by default as long as the SD card is inserted.
+ Luma3DS does not look any different from the normal HOME menu. If your console has booted into the HOME menu, it is running custom firmware.
+ On the next page, you will copy Luma3DS to internal memory so that you can boot without an SD card.
