      @mitu I'm sorry, I was wrong to write. Good evening, I mounted a ready-made image and it always worked. Now I mounted it on the PC monitor because I made a cabinet and the screen always remains black to me. Can anyone help me?

        We don't support 3rd party images - as it's outlined in the https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
        Try the RetroPie image from retropie.org.uk/download and we'll be able to provide support.

          @mitu my mistake, with the translator, the image was made with the original retropie downloaded from the site, then I played a bit and put it away when I reassembled everything but on a pc monitor instead of tv I still have a black screen and not even the lan works me more😔😔

            What resolutions does the PC monitor support ? When you start the Pi, do you get the boot 'rainbow screen' ?

              @mitu no black screen, the monitor supports 1600 * 900 60hz

                Make sure the sdcard is properly inserted - it looks like the pi doesn't even boot. If that's not the case, then write the image again.

                    Is your monitor working ? Is the video cable to the monitor ok - how is the monitor connected (HDMI/VGA/etc.) ? What kind of Raspberry Pi model do you have ?

                        Does the monitor work - with the same cable - connected to another PC/device ? I'm suspecting a faulty or incorrect cable.

                                @angel1682 Insert your sdcard into your PC, them modify the config.txt file in the new BOOT partition that appears (don't format the card, if Windows asks you). Open the file and add the line mentioned

                                hdmi_force_hotplug=1
                                

                                You can also try with:

                                hdmi_safe=1

                                    You need to add one of those lines - at the end of the file, on a separate line.
