@dankcushions
Thanks for your reply and no problem. This is the contents of that file:

input_overlay = "/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/overlay/GameBezels/Sega32X/NFL Quarterback Club (World).cfg"

The contents of that .cfg file mentioned are below:

overlays = 1

overlay0_overlay = "NFL Quarterback Club (World).png"

overlay0_full_screen = true

overlay0_descs = 0

@fadangalini thank you. that seems fine (though you might want to try temporarily renaming the file so it doesn't get picked up, just to test)

i just tried it on my setup and working fine here. can you please supply all the relevant config files:
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg
/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-core-options.cfg (the picodrive lines, specifically)
/opt/retropie/configs/sega32x/retroarch.cfg

@dankcushions

Thanks, I'll rename and try.

Here are the configs you asked for:

/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg:
https://pastebin.com/embed_iframe/iZXFmrHG

/opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-core-options.cfg:
There doesn't look like there are any picodrive entries... so here's the whole thing.

looking at your sega32x/retroarch.cfg, i think i understand why - it's a non-default one (the default one should be much shorter) and is overwriting the setting in /all/retroarch.cfg that would cause it use the default core-options cfg.

rename
/opt/retropie/configs/sega32x/retroarch.cfg
to
/opt/retropie/configs/sega32x/retroarch.cfg.bak
and look for the default file in the same directory, called retroarch.cfg.rp-dist, and rename that to retroarch.cfg. this may fix your problem.

@dankcushions Thanks, I'm out now for a few hours but will give it go when I get home again and let you know. Cheers.

@dankcushions Thank you, legend. It was the retroarch.cfg file. Set to the default and the roms loaded fine. I noticed that the .cfg file is slightly different to what I'm used to, on/off sliders instead of "on' and "off" text.

Thanks for your help, spot on!

[dankcushions]

@fadangalini you're very welcome :) glad you're sorted. not sure what's worth playing on 32x, mind...

[fadangalini]

@dankcushions Haha. More nostalgia really, saved all my pocket money for one as a kid, but only ever had Doom on it!

@fadangalini had one as a kid as well. Virtua racing and Virtua fighter are worth checking out.
