I put the Ethernet cable, the monitor, a mouse and finally the plug to my tablet. The plug has a thick cord and is powerful enough to run anything. Including my Pi2.
So the red light comes on, the monitor tries to get a picture and then.. NOTHING. No picture, no nothing. Help?
I had the same. Got mine yesterday too. Tried all the available images, but nothing appeared on my monitor. I thought it would be broken. Then I searched this forum, and it's a known issue. I use a HDMI to DVI converter cable, to connect to a monitor. It won't work. Very dissapointing! I connected it to my TV, by real HDMI, and I had a picture. So I know now that the board works, and eventually I want to use it as a multimedia player, but for now it's useless!
Too bad.... as long as I can't use DVI, I can't work with the Pine 64!
I have with two RPI's, which work perfectly when connecting to a DVI monitor.
