Psx emulator

staphamou79

First of, I apologize if anyone is irritated by this continuous topic.
I am new at the rasberry pi, mine is pi 3 with the latest retropie 4.3.
All the NES, SNES work flawlessly but I am unable to see the ps games.
Those are the steps that I have done so far:
1.

list itemusing the youtube video ps1 setup guide , I followed all the steps and retrieve SCPH1001.bin, then transferred to the BIOS folder.
```
* restarted the rasberry but still nothing.
```

2
So I wiped out everything and started again from scratch, but before connecting my usb, I updated all the core applications included the pcsx-armed.
Plugged in my usb for the mapping, then went back to my computer and extract SCPH1001.BIN. But this time, I copy -pasted the file into the BIOS folder.
After going back to my Rasberry and started the unit, I am still unable to see any playstation logo nor game( ps1 games were store in the psx folder).
What am I doing wrong?

In the youtube guide, precisely when you are searching for psx under configuration,the gent changed the 1 after runcommad to 2.
In mind, it was a 0. I tried with #1 no success; then I tried 2 same result.
can Anyone help?
Sincerely

i would forget youtube guides and just use the official docs: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/

Thank you for your response, I appreciate the advice.
I checked out the very same link that you highlighted.
But the problem is that it is hard to make out where to start, how to type the command.
The article is rich of info but not very friendly for novice user in Lunix. I have been around MS Dos and cmd for so long.
I was hoping that someone will have steps by steps guides. That person will be a hero to the beginners. lol
But thank you anyway.

how to type the command

There is no command to type.

Make sure you copy the BIOS file in the BIOS folder and it's the correct file.
Transfer your ROMs to the psx folder, make sure you copy both .cue and .bin files. Note that Linux is case sensitive on filenames, so check your .cue file contents and make sure the .bin files there have the same case as the actual .bin files you copied.
Restart Emulationstation and browse the Playstation 1 system to see if your games appear.
Launch the game.

I appreciate your input. In regard to your late comment on the other topic, I was just following what was suggested.
Please refer to dankcushions comment, as I stated before my intent is not to annoy y'all experts in the subject.
I am just looking for help , not soft attack. Don't get me wrong, I understood your point behind the post . It is just frustrating that it triggered an immediate accusation as being a spammer.
But anyway I guess people will never change.
Thank you for the correction.After the comment I tried to correct the misunderstanding but I guess the 2nd topic is locked . lol.
Whatever, I can probably continue to poke around and find someone with a true desire to help.
I wish you both a very blessed evening.
Cheers
