Raspberry pi 3 booting issue

Wed Oct 19, 2016 6:51 pm

I recently bought a Raspberry pi 3 and follows all the procedures to install the boobs on a 16 gb Strontium class 10 sd card. It booted normally. But today when I try to provide power, nothing happens. I have connected a optical mouse which flashes once on power on and then goes off. Pls help me someone.

Hi,
maybe there was a problem with the SD card - have you tried to reimage it, or try another?

Probably a corrupted SD card or bad power supply ( not enough current). I just set up a brand new Raspi 3 today that had an unsoldered SD socket. Might want to take a close look at yours but I think my situation here is very rare.
