      I'm new to the whole retropie thing and got one preloaded to play with; however, after selecting one of the preloaded splash screens I got stuck on this page. I can type as you can see at the bottom with me desperately trying to launch the pie, but I can't find anyone giving examples of this specific problem.

        We don’t support preloaded pi’s here. Start fresh and If you still have issues, maybe look at getting a better power supply.

          @lostless ok. thank you. the power supply errors at bottom are from me plugging in a flash drive in effort to fix the issue. should've mentioned that.

            @thesterninator a usb flash drive should not cause power issues. And seriously start fresh. It will teach you how the whole RetroPie system works.
