      My biggest issue is that I have no idea how to do ANY of this.

      I can get as far as pressing F4 to exit the simulation and get a command prompt, but that is it. No idea what I do from there or what to even type into the prompt.

      I am truly appreciative for the support however. This is probably the most helpful community I have seen.

        @moggy you can do all of this on a PC and then transfer the files to your device by whatever method you put the roms there in the first place.

          That sounds like it would be a lot easier. Any idea how to enable the connection on the odroid? Once that is done I should be able to do all of the above.

          Thanks in advance.

            @moggy your first post indicates that you already have some roms on the system. How did you put them there in the first place? Probably just do that again.

                We don't support 3rd party images, especially the ones sold pre-loaded with ROMs. Ask the seller for advice and support.

                  Oh. Sorry.

                  I think its all legit odroid and retropie if that makes any difference.

                    Not sure what you understand by 'legit', but I don't think selling a system pre-loaded with thousands of games falls into this category.

                      You're probably right. I've contacted the seller for further support.

                      Is it okay if I still post here if the seller can't help?

                        No, of course. As said before, we don't offer support for pre-loaded/sold systems - even if they're based on RetroPie.

                          Okay then. At the very least the info in the thread should help me out.

                          No hard feelings BTW.
