Homebrew Question (Please help) I keep getting a black screen after launching atmosphere

[Reid321]

Hi guys. This is my first time trying to get CFW on anything so I’m pretty new. 2 days ago I tried to get atmosphere running on my switch and got it in CFW after formatting the micro sd to fat32. I removed the sd card to try to add jksv but my switch prompted me to turn my switch off and I did and since my switch has kept getting a black screen after showing the atmosphere logos I have kept reformatting the the sd and downloading the atmosphere stuff almost 8 times already and still a black screen! This is very frustrating for me so if anyone can help me that would be great!

Can you launch OFW? Hekate? Do you have a backup?
Probably the first thing to try is another sd card if your switch does work normally but you can't launch cfw.

This sounds like a wrong sd card format issue. What did you use to make sure the card was fat32? Use gui format, i suspect that you're trying to boot with an exfat sd card and the launch is failing.

Did you remove your sd card while the switch was still on? Maybe try other sd cards.
