config menus just go to black screen
config menus just go to black screen
So far ive managed to get to the testing phase all the necessary hardware is working but when i try to show the ip or any other option in the config menu the screen just goes black and it wont let me exit or anything until i reboot it. i know for a fact that its not connecting to the network and i cant figure out why so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try connecting your sound card. I did run into a similar issue which I believe stems from the intro video. Having the sound card connected fixed it for me.

I am having the same problem. I connected my sound card via USB, and not only has the problem persisted, but I'm not getting sound either. I'm using the newest MintyPi image. When I plug the sound card in, it just resets the raspberry pi.

Re: config menus just go to black screen
Alright, I was messing around with my MintyPi when I realized that the micro USB port on the right is specifically for power. If you plug the sound card into that one, it won't work. I didn't realize this because my micro USB converter would cover up the other micro USB port. Hope this helped.
