Hi there, a rad should never boot with a black screen in my experience.
Does the computer turn on and go to basic screen first or is it always
black?
It should go to c64 basic before resetting into the RAD menu.
Did you put together the board yourself? Can you upload a picture of it?
I'm guessing it could be hardware related.

the raspy, but nothing, always black screen. How can I solve the problem???

Sorry just saw the photos, what type raspberry pi, the board looks ok ,
cant read all the chips, but the solder looks good.
It needs to be raspberry Pizero2w or 3A+, 3b+ , will not work with PiZero

The pi needs to be this orientation also, sometimes people put it
backwards....

the raspy used is a pizero2 w (as you can see from the photo), I also think the installation direction is correct because it follows the direction of the shell. I tried with two SD (64 GB and 128 GB), tomorrow I will receive the 32 GB SD, but I don't think this is the problem. I repeat the problem, as soon as I start the C64, the screen remains black, the Raspy turns on (I can see it from the green light that remains fixed), then nothing happens anymore. I tried with an external power supply, same problem. Could the raspy be damaged? I bought it new on Amazon. |

You need to check if your pizero2w is working.
Download an image from raspberry pi and see if it boots. The green led
doesn't mean it works. Connect it using hdmi and see it can load an
operating system.
The PCB looks good. I can't see any solder bridges, can you?

I didn't see a photo of your pi and the green light staying on is not
correct. It should flash a little while loading the firmware, which is not
happening.
With the RAD board disconnected does the Raspberry Pi led perform
differently when you turn it on?
Also never power the RAD while you have the power jumper in place. It can
damage your c64.

I have a RAD card with raspeberry zero 2 hw. as written on the rad project site, I copy the files of the latest firmware with the SD formatted in fat32, I turn on the c64 but the screen remains black but in the raspy the green light turns on, a sign that it reads the SD. I also tried to power the raspy, but nothing, always black screen. How can I solve the problem???
