Raspberry Pi won't boot.

A friend gave me their old 2014 Raspberry Pi B+ v1.2. I formatted a 32 Gb micro SD card, flashed the RasPi OS onto it with the tool from my only other computer (which is a macbook that was also a gift). I put the SD into the Pi, plugged in the HDMI, plugged in power, and… no screen output. the Power and Act lights fine, so the board itself probably has no problems. The green ACT light got dim and was flashing. I am not sure if there is a pattern, maybe I was just imagining it, but it looked like it flashed 3 times, paused, and repeated. I looked it up and found the issue associated with it, but after I reflashed the SD card it still did not work. I tried messing around a bit with the config file but could not figure it out. 

 

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
