Coloured splash screen with preloaded NOOB

Sat Nov 02, 2013 5:33 pm

Today I got a raspberry pi and an 8gb SD card preloaded with NOOB, when I try to turn it on all that appears on my TV is 4 colours, red, yellow. green and blue. I found out about this on the forum but I cannot find the files it says I need (Kernel.img or config.txt) I am on my computer running windows 7 and no of the files are these

Hi,
that multi coloured screen should appear for only a few seconds after switch on. NOOBS has been updated very recently and as yours is pre-loaded it is probably not the latest version. I recommend you get a new blank SD card, download the latest NOOBS image and start again.
