At what point do you give up and ask for a refund or another board
#1
Tried every single os, different micro sd cards, cdmi cables, tv's, power supplies and still have a board that power up, has no display, no boot.

I even left it overnight on numerous occasions, left it for a few hours on others.  I am fully at the end of my tether with a board that simply will not boot!

the current card is a 32GB card plugged into an LG tv using a power supply that works well with a raspberry pi.  I am beginning to get annoyed but am holding back as being an engineer means having patient with new tech but I must say, even the pi has never given me this much grief!

I am on the verge of simply buying a pi 3 and sticking to that as I know it works.  If I said I was truly disappointed, it would the the understatement of the year so far!
