        If I'm understanding you right, you want to play the games with your keyboard? If so, check your /opt/retropie/configs/n64/InputAutoCfg.ini file and make sure that plugged = True is set under [Keyboard]. If the various keys are not as you want them, you can reassign them to your preference by using this chart.

            Unless something has recently changed, it should be there. The wiki still lists it as a viable configuration method. You might try removing 'Mupen64plus' and adding it back using the most recent Retropie setup script.

                What exactly did you change or do right before that? It sounds like you may have altered the video settings in some way that your television can't handle.

                    Not a problem. First let's make sure we're on the same page. When you launch a game, does the screen go black and give some sort of HDMI message?

                      @mediamogul it says
                      powering on hdmi with explicit settings (dmt mode 4)
                      and powering in HDMI with preferred settings

                        When launching a N64 game, press a keyboard key When the 'Run Command' menu appears and then try setting the default video mode to 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16x9.

                                      I really don't know what could have gone wrong in fixing your keyboard problem that would yielded display issues. Did this start after you uninstalled and reinstalled Mupen64Plus?
