      I reset the game controller configuration to get a fresh start. But here's the thing. I started having issues and removed the SD card to start a fresh copy.
      first, i unzipped the retropie 4.8 second, i formatted the card in FAT32 third, i the open Etcher and loaded the image and them write it. but when putting the card back on the pi 4, it starts to load, it shows the retropie screen and loaded showing the scrips along the screen whe loading or turning the pi on and then it goes blank

        Maybe something didn't go well. Try again to write the image but this time use Raspberry Pi IMager : https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/ .

        My English isn't at a good level.

          The last time a had retropie 4.8 going on the pi4 it was great. kept having trouble with wireless keyboard, but once that i got it going once, I just reset the controller config, and then i removed the card. but every since, i try reinstalling retropie 4.8 from the image and also tried from the Gz file and still noting, it started to load, but then things go blank. So, i finally but the old version back on and it booted great, just had to update to the latest new version on the Pi4
