      @AlexMurphy so as long as I get the ir-pcsx-rearmed file the SPCH1001.BIN should be in there right

        @streetsweep lr-pcsx-rearmed is one of the emulators, not a file you need to get.

            @streetsweep No. Have you put the bios in the bios folder?

              @streetsweep Pretty sure it's installed by default (it's an l, not an i btw). You can always check the setup program (see here: https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/First-Installation#installing-additional-emulators it's listed in the "main" section).

                @liquidzoo It is. You don't need to do anything with the cores / emulators. He just needs the correct bios, correctly named in the bios folder then add ROMs to the PSX ROMS folder.

                          @streetsweep Then the ROMs aren't in the right format (or possibly the right place). Look at the guide again.

                            @liquidzoo I did what the guide said on getting the Roms downloaded them straight from [redacted - Read the rules] the moved them to the PSX ROM folder

                              The rules here states not to say where you downloading ROMs from!

                              You need to unzip and/or unrar the downloads first so you have a <game name>.bin and a <game name>.cue. Then put both of those files in /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/psx/ on your RPi.

                              I don't have a PlayStation choice on the main screen I only have NES SNES nes64 and Sega

                              you might not have one of the PSX emulators install because the default image of RetroPie doesn't come with it pre-installed (I don't think).

                              Fast forward that video I posted above to like 15:28 and watch it until the end!

                                  @streetsweep ok now you need to extract it from the .ecm. You can google how to extract .ecm file.

                                    @streetsweep honestly though just google for psx .pbp files. Much easier to use a .pbp then bin and cues.

                                      @edmaul69 .pbp files will definitely be the easiest way to get this working.
