It's also possible the SD card has a bad sector in a critical place, and `dd` won't be able to tell you. Double-check that you're using [a blessed SD card](http://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards), and try flashing the image again. -* **I see a "rainbow square" in the top right corner of the screen, and the device seems unstable.** This usually means the Pi isn't getting enough voltage from your power supply.

Please check if your TV has an option in its settings for enabling this, as some do. If not, you can [try your luck with HDMI CEC signals](http://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/9142/commands-for-using-cec-client), but the TV implementations of the spec are notoriously spotty.
