Abstract
The LHC Collider start-up was successfully achieved on the 10 September 2008. This date is a milestone marking a long path started fourteen years ago with the LHC approval in December 1994. But other milestones are now expected. In fact, after about 10 days of operation, the LHC was subjected to a major stop caused by a faulty interconnection on the magnets interconnections. The fault caused severe collateral damages. This paper shortly recalls some of the achievements of the 10 September start-up and focalizes on: the incident of the 19th of September; its causes and the collateral damages; status of reparation; overlook on the modification made on the Accelerator to limit the repetition of such type of accident and finally looking toward the 2009 Commissioning.
