@cowboysdude I still can’t get it to work. Ill try reinstalling NOOBS and magicmirror and see if it gets any better

[cowboysdude]

@MatthewCowell I ran it through a validator and it said no issues and I can’t find any …

Why are you using Noobs? I would install this:

https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

When you restart copy your sample config js file to config.js and just make sure it starts…

Once you do that do not delete your sample config file as that is your temp backup…

Once you get it working and you add a module and it works then back up your config.js to something like config.bak that way you always have a working backup…

in terminal window:

cd ~MagicMirror/config
then
cp config.js config.bak
