      When I booted up my Retropie for the first time and everything was loading then, after a couple seconds all of the words stretch out then the Raspberry Pi crashes. I want to know how I can fix this crash. If someone can help me I would be very happy

        Please add some more info about your setup, as detailed in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.
        Do you get any error displayed when the crash happens ?

          When it is loading, the Retropie checks if everything is ok with the system. Then I got 4 to 5 errors, then the Retropie logo shows then the console crashes.

            This looks like a corrupted SDcard/filesystem - assuming the 'checks' are actually the automated filesystem checks performed on boot.

                Without knowing what's the actual error, difficult to say - but you can try another sdcard and install RetroPie anew.
