You turned on your Raspberry Pi 2 for the first time in a long time, but only saw the screen. Need assistance!

Are you starting up now? Does your device have an SD card attached? Make sure it supports a working operating system. SD cards may malfunction, so verify their status.

You can verify whether the micro SD card contains the OS by checking its functionality. If you connect it to a computer and it boots up, the OS is likely present. Alternatively, use a tool like a USB flash drive scanner or a bootable diagnostic utility to confirm the presence of the operating system.

Use balena etcher to flash your SD card, confirming the image is correct. If the card is original to the Raspberry Pi 2, it might not work properly. Samsung cards seem problematic for the Raspberry Pi 4, but I’m not sure about the Pi2 differences.

I mean clarify your question and explain the steps clearly. Could you provide more details about what you're referring to?
