Hi and welcome to the forum.
Need more information from you in order to help.
Which OS are you trying to use. The SD card message may be a clue to your problem, but we don't know the size of it.

Also thread title changed to something more meaningful.
Thanks
Texy

And the OS you are trying to run? Have you got anything on the display at all?

What type of keyboard, wired, wireless etc.
What original OS was on the card?
And how did you go about redoing the card?
