so pleased I got my kids the Pi for christmas but for my sanity and diminishing lack of knowledge someone help me get this up and running or new year resolutions will fail!!!!
I have a raspberry Pi 2 model B NOOBS edition.
1. can I run this on a all in one desktop?
2. I put the little card in, I added power added keyboard & Mouse, from all in one desktop, plugged in HDMI and NOTHING, the little green and red light came on then the green went off and nothing appeared on the screen.
feel so helpless!!
look forward to hearing from a kind PI helper.
thanks

Re: Help!!! Not booting.
First guess... try connecting it all up BEFORE adding power. It probably started, did not find the HDMI connection and started in alternative video mode. When you plugged in the HDMI monitor it was already ignoring it.
Re: Help!!! Not booting.
Are you plugging an HDMI cable into sockets on the RPi and the all-in-one?
If yes, check that the HDMI socket on the all-in-one is an input and not an output intended for another monitor or TV.
Very, very few HDMI sockets can be configured between input and output modes.
