      @Unknown Yeah I downloaded them from the setup script. I can try to show you my Runcommand Log if that would help

        @Brandon12345678 the run command will probably help figure out happened. Go adhead and show it.

        You can't beat the classics(unless you copy them).

          @Unknown Ok here is something interesting that happened. When I turned on my pi. I turned it off before with the option parse gamelists only turned on. When I turned it back on right now, the roms worked, but only the ones that were visible.
          My runcommand says the following,

          (==) Log file: "/home/pi/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log", Time: Wed Jun 17 14:31:50 2020
          (==) Using system config directory "/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d"
          modprobe: FATAL: Module g2d_23 not found in directory /lib/modules/4.19.118-v7l+

          I would really want to have all the games visible and working, not only some. When the setting is turned on, all game and watch games do not work as well. Hope this helps.

            @Brandon12345678 The error says it was not able to find a file it needed to run.

              @Unknown What file? I didn’t delete any files when installing the emulators.

                @Brandon12345678 It seems to say that it could not find "Modual g2d_23" in the directory"/lib/moduals/4.19.118-v7l+".

                  @Brandon12345678 All other websites says that this means nothing and is harmless. Is it a bug in RetroPie 4.6?

                    @Brandon12345678 No other website or topic mentions anything like this. Is it a bug in RetroPie 4.6?

                    I'm not sure if it is a bug. That is a question that the Global monitors would have to answer.

                          @Brandon12345678 Either there was more errors, or it affects some thing after all.

                            @Unknown Where would you find those other errors. I really don’t want to have to reinstall the os again. I can access the pi via ssh.

                              @Brandon12345678 I would try reinstalling those emulators or removing them. If that doesn't work than I don't know .

                                @Unknown To reinstall them would you select remove and then install from source.

                                  Well I was asking if you saw any other errors in the "run command file". Sorry that I didn't make that clear.

                                      @Unknown No other errors. It has been almost all downhill with this pi. Anytime I got a lot of things working, it would stop on me. I even had to get a new tv for it and lose all my previous roms before I got this os.

                                        @Unknown reinstalling doesn’t work. It still boots me back into EmulationStation after selecting a rom.

                                          @Brandon12345678 Are those emulators experimental?
