      My Raspberry 3 doesn't give any output to my monitor, also tried to connect with my TV but it doesn't display anything.

      I folllowed these settings but my config file already had the same:
      link text

      Lights from my PI3 still works and i can still connect through Network to download/edit my files.

      Also a fresh retropie image din't work!

        @darky2003 How are you connecting your monitor/TV ? If it's a HDMI cable, check the cable, HDMI output should work without problems.

            @darky2003 You can play with the tvservice command to see if the PI detects the correct TV resolution - or the TV/monitor at all (see https://elinux.org/RPi_Configuration#Boot_options). Do you have any special configuration options in the /boot/config.txt file ? Is this a new system or did it ever worked before ?

              it was working ok,
              but yesterday i start soldering the cables from my pc controller pcb to my buttons ( to add the light to my button) while the Raspberry was on. Then after i finished i lost the screen.

              Tried turning the RB on without controller but that din't make the difference.
              I think its just broken, better get a ODROID-XU4 instead of a Raspberry now :-( .
