    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.

            Still getting an HDMI error? Can you see the games running?

                it also might be the emulator which is the preset emulator?

                  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?

                        The videocore option shows promise for the future, but as of now, I've yet to get a game to run. Try the Glide or Rice options instead.

                            I can reliably make use of both, but why don't you start off by trying low.

                                You can try some more default video modes. Also, you might try retracing all the steps that led to this issue for possible clues.

                                        Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling Mupen64Plus, or is that what started your video problems? I'm not sure where we landed on that.

                                          so i fixed the video but the keyboard is still not working and how would i reinstall mupen64plus also i think the keyboard has been doing this since i started the pi up but only with the n64 tho i may have changed a setting when i first started it up
