        @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.

                      It looks like your config.txt file is already set to a certain resolution and has the hdmi_force_hotplug=1 option added. Did you modify the file ? Because the default RetroPie image doesn't have this settings.

                        @mitu it took a long time to arrive at a good resolution, I had documented some small variations, but now I have forgotten everything, I am a non-programming nurse๐Ÿ˜‚

                          I would comment the resolution lines (add a # at the beginning of the line) and also comment the hdmi_drive line. Try with these modifications to see if the video works.

                              In your file, you have these lines :

                              hdmi_group=1
                              hdmi_mode=19
                              

                              Modify the line and add a # at the beginning of the line:

                              # hdmi_group=1
                              # hdmi_mode=19
                              

                              Make a copy/backup of the file, just in case.
