A few days ago I acquired a gamepi20, the screen goes blank, turns on but does nothing. After an investigation and seen that it is a common problem, I wanted to know if anyone knows something I could do?

We don't support 3rd party images here anyway - you can start with the standard RetroPie image (from retropie.org.uk/download) and then perform the installation of drivers as detailed in the vendor's Wiki page I linked before.
