Stupid me. I accidentally disabled overscan and it won't show anything after normal post, it shows the rainbow-colored screen, then shifts for recovery then after what nothing.
I don't want to lose any files and documents, I know it wasn't the wisest idea to not back up or use the pi as a primary file hold. Is there any way I can remedy this?

  • Press SHIFT. The NOOBS recovery has a config.txt editor so you can undo your broken changes. – Dougie Jan 07 '20 at 12:13
  • "I don't want to lose any files and documents" -> They're probably still there and accessible from any computer that can read an ext4 filesystem. – goldilocks Jan 07 '20 at 21:07

With the information supplied it is difficult to suggest any answer.

If you "don't want to lose any files and documents" DO NOTHING with the SD Card.
Do a fresh installation - preferably Raspbian NOT NOOBS

You can then mount the SD Card in a reader on the Pi and recover your files. Ask another question if you need help with this.
