8 Green Flashing Lights on Raspberry Pi 4 B
Hello, just received my Raspberry Pi 4 model B today. Attempted to set up Octoprint. Setup was very simple, loaded the raspberry pi imager and flashed octoprint right from there, properly edited files to enable network connections. However, when I insert my micro SD (bought straight from sandisk) and turn the Pi on, I get 4 slow and 4 rapid green light flashes. Reading around for support and it sounds like an SDRAM error. Is that even fixable, did my Pi arrive defective?

Re: 8 Green Flashing Lights on Raspberry Pi 4 B
On a Pi 4 the 4 green flashes usually mean start.elf failed to launch or there is a problem reading from the SD card (corruption).
Do you have another SD card or want to try putting down the Pi OS current release with their rpi imager?
