Black screen on screen saver drivers#

The display drivers that are installed might not be compatible or updated. I have a 2nd pi that was built from a previous version of this pi (SD card copy) and video screensavers do work. A hardware problem like a broken display or a loose wire can cause the black screen on display. When I hit a button, it then goes back to EmulationStation. Immediately during startup, you’ll get a prompt to hit a certain key to enter setup (usually F2 or the DEL key). I then go to screen saver settings and the screen saver is now set to 'Blank' instead of 'Bubbles' after 20 minutes. Then later after 20 minutes, the screen goes blank, or black as you say. I can come back to my computer after an hour and a half, and log back in.
