The re-boot is not successful since the HDMI seems unable to supply the voltage needed during part of the boot up sequence so it repeats endlessly. I suspect that this has killed one of my RPI3’s. So the question: should this happen? Has anyone else seen it? What do to?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>On a related note: for any HDMI display - it seems that if you connect the display after the RPI is up and running, it is not recognized. It’s as if the DHMI port is turned off. Is there some option or setting that can force the HDMI port to be “on” or to recognize that something has been plugged in?<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Ken<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>KE2N<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
