RetroPie Configuration Settings Not Working

LarryMoo 0

I am trying to change some settings for my pi, but every time that I try to access any of the settings (i.e. WiFi, Configuration Editor, Audio, etc. ) I am left with an eternal black screen. This has only been a recent problem. I first got this Pi 4 last April and it had been working without any problems up until the past two months. I have installed new versions of RetroPie multiple times but the same problem keeps happening. At this point I have no idea what else I can do. PLEASE HELP ME.

Pi Model or other hardware: Pi 4
Power Supply used: Default PSU that came with it.
RetroPie Version Used: 4.7.1
Built From: Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website (retropie-buster-4.7.1-rpi4_400.img)
USB Devices connected: N/A
Controller used: Logitech Gamepad F310
Error messages received: N/A
Guide used: First Installation Guide
How to replicate the problem: Happens every time I try to access the configuration settings for anything besides RetroArch

If you have a 4k TV, try setting the video resolution of your Raspberry Pi to 1080p - you can modify the /boot/config.txt file on the sdcard and set

  hdmi_group=1
  hdmi_mode=16

then reboot your Pi.
