Hold power for 12 seconds (might be 10 seconds) it will power down, put in the SDCard, power back up with RCM jig and device plugged in.
Thank you you're a lifesaver that's worked but for some reason there's no difference with the system it still seems to be the normal software do you know have a walk through how to do it on r4s dongle?

Settings -> About system.

If CFW booted properly you will see something similar to "8.0.0 (AWS 0.8.9)" Or other CFW version that you might have used.

I dont know i just went to r4i-sdhc . c o m and downloaded the reiNX 7.0.1 that come out in 18 March 2019 that is the most recent one also when I plug my dongle into my computer I also copied those files into my microSD card along with the reiNX and then I put the microSD card back in the switch but I did updated my switch to version 8.0.1 before i downloaded reinx because I bought the switch yesterday from a friend and he said it hasn't been updated for a very long time the original version was 4.0 so clearly it hasn't been updated is it possible this may be the reason why nothing seems to happen or did I need to download more stuff onto the microSD card??

Use Atmosphere, not ReiNX. (Personal Bias here, but Atmosphere is probably the best CFW for Switch right now.)

That's fine I think there was also an option to download that the only concern I have is because I've updated the switches main software to version 8.0 would I need to wait for a new version of atmosphere over the most recent one which was also released in March be ok?? And what kind of games can I run I bought the r4s so I could download Pokémon let's go and Dragon Ball xenoverse 2 and Dragonball fighter Z and Super Mario Smash Bros I know some of these files are either nsp or xci any idea where I can download the games and also any idea what format r4s handles

Atmosphere is compatible with all versions of OFW. Including 8.0.1 (Latest as of this comment)

You will only be able to use NSP's on Atmosphere, you will need to BUY SXOS for XCI files and their pirate shop.
