      @mikołajhenza Please follow the recommended method: use Etcher to write the image from our website on your SD card.

            @oyyodams It simply doesn't work. There isn't any signal on the monitor and only red light works.

                @oyyodams I use two cards - first is SanDisk 16GB MicroSD HCi (Class 10 which has installed Rasbian, it's from https://botland.com.pl/karty-pamieci-raspberry-pi/8848-karta-pamieci-microsd-16gb-40mbs-klasa-10-system-noobs-dla-raspberry-pi.html) and second is Kingston C32G. I tried to do that on both of them and they are FAT32.

                  @mikołajhenza ok forget the Kingston. The Sandisk should work, maybe you should re-download the image from our website.

                  Etcher will format the SD card, so I don't care if it's FAT32 or NTFS before 😉

                      @mikołajhenza so it seems you have bad luck with both SD cards... With noobs or direct image... I can only advise you to buy another good SD card (Sandisk class 10 are the best ones)

                          @mikołajhenza these are old tutorials.

                          This is the up to date (in french): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UBH4S6kG80
