Hi guys, my system is not showing any video or sound but fan is on and lights are flashing. Is this a hardware or software problem and how to tell? Thanks so much
Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ - Retropie 4.4

Please add more info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
How are you connecting the video output - HDMI/Composite - and what's your display (TV/Monitor/etc.) ? -
So i have to make a correction it a rpie 3 b not rpie 4, connected hdmi, and its connected to a uhd tv, i also tried two other tvs and another hdmi cord, all of which work. Also the light on the rpie3 is red. Thank you.

@tigerzblud If it's only the UHD tv that's not working, then it's a TV compatibility problem and not a RetroPie error. Try setting your TV to 1080p and see if this gets you further.
A Raspberry PI 3 cannot do full 4k (UHD), only 1080p. You might want to force the PI to output 1080p by modifying theconfig.txtfile - see the video options available for configuration here. -
Thats Definitely not it the other 2 TV's aren't UHD and it was working on the HD tv up and until it stopped to. I'm going to re format another SD card and install noobs and see what happens

Ok So noobs worked which is great that means my raspberry pi 3 still works but I did buy this disk imaged off eBay and Aman have to figure out how to install all those games myself. Thank you very much for the help I'll let you know what happens. Do you know of a place to download retro pie for new newby's?

@tigerzblud The official image is at retropie.org.uk/download - use that image.
