trouble with booting

droidus

I am not able to boot my Raspberry pi.  i am using a dvi to hdmi cable.  i have a dell monitor.  i have power to the board, and it is supplied by 1.2 a.  i got it to boot once, but it is not working again.  any thoughts or ideas?

  • Hi Bobby,

     

    I take it that "looks to be yellow" is in response to

     

    "What does it do LED wise".

     

    If _all_ you are seeing is a yellow LED, I would suspect a power supply problem.

     

    After power up, the red PWR led should be lit and you should see activity on the green led to its right as it boots from the SD card.

     

    There is then a short delay before the other leds come on and start showing activity.

     

    If you don't get the red one, something is wrong with the power for sure.
