      @shavecat said in HELP retropie games roms going back to emulationstation sometimes ...:

      https://pastebin.com/bmxRu58W

      arm_freq=2000
      gpu_freq=750
      over_voltage=6
      temp_limit=70
      temp_soft_limit=70
      disable_splash=1
      

      remove all overclocks, try again.

            @shavecat if it works without the overclock then it's an unstable overclock. you can't go this high. not all pis can cope with such overclocks
