      I've placed all 5 bios files in retropie/bios folder.
      But when I launch any 5200 game (set emulator: Ir-atari800), it doesn't start and automatically goes back to emulationstation game list.
      Not sure what's going on. Every other topic here indicates that Ir-atari800 at least starts, but in my case it's not even starting up.
      Any ideas?
      Thank you!

        Please add some info about your system, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

        Can you run the emulator with verbose logging enabled and post the log file (/dev/shm/runcommand.log) on pastebin.com ?

          I found out that the problem is caused by shader I applied to all liberto emulators,
          I guess Atari800 emulator doesn't like shaders.
          Disabled it for this specific emu and it's working now!
          Thank you mitu for answer.
