So you remember NOOBS installation being brain-dead? Well I somehow managed to fuck it up. I copied the extracted NOOBS files to SD, plugged in peripherals as specified, plugged in power and... nothing!
I still can't get it to work, the only thing that could be wrong at this point is either corrupted files or a DOA board.

@Matthew you predicted it
Like fucking clockwork.
@Iren Masot aren't you supposed to flash the OS to the SD card instead of just copy/pasting?
No, NOOBS is copy/paste into the SD card after unzipping the files.
Literally plug and play but I can't get my Pi to post anything. 😂 👌 💯
Excellent assistance friend, your Reddit gold is in the mail
I literally followed given instructions to the letter, still nothing
<:brainlet:589104479887032330>
Gotta be bad hardware somewhere at this point.
SCP-level incompetence
I hear tell a green light should flash to indicate the SD card is being red, and that is NOT happening, I think this board is DOA boys.

Maybe your power source is bad?
Just haven't tried an SD card yet, but the one I have works perfectly fine in Windows with no issues.
was the sd card formatted to the right type?
ntfs, fat32, exfat, etc
I used the SD Foundation formatter as specified with no further fuckery on my part.
exFAT, tho.
is the default from the specified formatter.
I'm guessing you used this guide?
Oh yeah, to the letter.
Read any step in that guide, I did it exactly.
Only think I haven't done by now is try HDMI 1, but with that little green LED doing jack-shit, I think this is a foregone conclusion.
:3
I freaking swear.
Just say ching chong ping bong
bing bing wahoo and you got the job
I'm going to report this job listing
why would you need to speak mandarin though?
