Why is the latest version of noobs not working on my raspberry pi 4?

Question

Hello when i try to boot up with a fresh install of the latest vertion of noobs it just shows a rainbow screen.

What do do to fix this?

Are you using NOOBS 3.5.0 from raspberrypi.org/downloads/noobs? Do you really need the multi-boot capability? If you do, then use PINN raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=63&t=142574 as it's an enhanced version. To get started you should probably forget NOOBS and just use the RPi Imager tool to write RaspiOS directly to your SDCard. — Dougie, Commented Oct 21, 2020 at 12:54
