Yesterday i installed the newest image of retropie.

Which image is that ? The PI4 is not supported by the official image.

After that i plugged it in on my 4k LG TV with a Micro-HDMI cable.

Which HDMI port have you used ? The Pi4B has two of them, it's recommended you use the 'primary' port, the one next to the USB-C power.

@ElRafilla It's not exactly the same issue - the poster didn't have any video output, you seem to have it working until launching a game. Open a new topic and add the info requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

@xmrdarky Can you please fill in the information as requested here (https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first) so people on the forum can try and help. Each setup can be wildly different and knowing all this goes a long way to assisting. Like @rbaker says, it sounds like it could be a power issue if you are running it just off a USB charger, such as a phone charger, but we wont know unless you give details.

Though not entirely the same configuration (it was a Pi 4), I encountered an issue wherein after the boot sequence the display would be completely blank. I eventually narrowed it down to the memory split setting - I had changed it, trying to follow the instructions for RetroPie 'manual installation.' Keeping it default resolved the problem.

@mitu Glad to know I'm not the only one having the issue with Arcade's Greatest Hits - The Atari Collection 1. The fact that both of these games play properly on ePSXe, using the same BIOS (SCPH1001.bin) and ROM files, leads me to believe that it's an issue with lr-pcsx-rearmed. I suppose, worst case scenario, I could try The Atari Collection 1 on SNES and Hot Wheels Turbo Racing on N64 if myself or anyone else can't figure out the issue on PSX.

@Clyde Thanks Clyde I'll have a look. Cheers for the heads up.

@CapNinja /
Hey , did u got it working ???? :)

@300cpilot Purge would remove the system's config files, not any user configuration files - that's a rule for all packages. Glad you got it fixed.

@mitu Thank you man it works i Just install a bios file and put it in bios folder and both of them works very good.

@dankcushions yeah, it's probably as simple as that. I just wish there were some way to fix the issues.

Thanks guys I'll install a psp emulator 😎

@thedatacereal came with a kit also it’s an lcd monitor

@bruno_mlopes IMHO if it's a Debian/Ubuntu based distro, RetroPie would work with minimal fiddling, so if you like Xubuntu - keep using it.

@BuZz I just saw that Libretro-Mupen works fine without Problems, and i love Retroarch, so im gonna use that Emulator from now on!

@janik1501 said in Black screen on first boot:

@digitalmonkey doesnt work either

This means that you are incorrectly setting up your card, your card is not compatible or your card is corrupt.

@simonster thank you so much for your help the code work!

Try and skip to the git clone part.

@dsfrancis that probably wont work. Rename a file from .bin to .sg . Then restart emulationstation and test. Will probably work that way.

@cdoug does anything show on the screen when you are typing?
