      Hi all I was wondering if I could get some help with setting up my pi. I have a Raspberry Pi model B+ v1.2 I have downloaded the latest retro pie image formatted a EMTEC 16 gb class 10 micro sd with SD formatter v.4.0 and copied the image to the card using win32diskimager but when the pi boots up it goes to this screen instead of the controller setup.

      I have searched this forum and google and have not been able to find anyone else with this problem. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

          So I did some more searching and it seems I downloaded the wrong image I downloaded the retropie version called Raspberry Pi2/3 when I should have got the one called Raspberry Pi0/1
          it is now running correctly. Sorry for wasting your time.
