Check your SD card isn't damaged by bad sectors and redownload the image again.

Re: MintyPi image not booting?
I was checking to make sure my Pi zeros are working and get stared on getting used to working with Pi computers in general. Anyway both Pi's work which is good but I only got the RetroPi image to work. The images on display were also bigger then the screen on my TV. I burned the latest image from the wiki and then unzipped the setup into the boot folder like it said in the build guide. Am I supposed to use a specific program to unzip it?

If you are using the image from the wiki, you don't need to do anything with the setup script. The setup script is for people to use on a fresh retropie install if for whatever reason they don't want to use the pre-made image.Psyicman wrote: ↑Tue Aug 22, 2017 11:15 pmI was checking to make sure my Pi zeros are working and get stared on getting used to working with Pi computers in general.

Re: MintyPi image not booting?
Great thanks. Now I just got to figure out how to get the splash screen to work and why the size aspects are all wrong. I'll try reburning the image again on a fresh formatted SD card.
