@N-A-R-E-K-96 as @chipsnblip said open up your cue file. If your bin file is called DrAcUla.BiN you need to have it say that in the cue file. Linux is case sensitive so caps and lowercase are very important. Even on the file extension. It is common for the cue file inside to say .BIN AND the bin file is really .bin

@N.A.R.E.K.96 can you show exactly the name of the iso file. That is what has to match the inside of the cue file. If you are using an emulator on windows caps and lowercase wont matter. Linux it matters. If this all checks out, then the bios is where your problem is.

@N.A.R.E.K.96 said in Sega CD black screen:

FILE "Terminator, The (1994)(Virgin)(PAL)(Track 01 of 10)[!].iso" BINARY

This line inside the parenthesis has to match the name of your iso file exactly. Any differences at all and it wont work. Plus make sure all of your .wav files get loaded onto the pi as well.

@edmaul69 Terminator, The (1994)(Virgin)(PAL)(Track 01 of 10)[!].iso is the name

edmaul69

@N.A.R.E.K.96 can you remove the first line of the cue file? The one that says catalog...

N.A.R.E.K.96

@edmaul69 OK

N.A.R.E.K.96

I conected my retropie sd card to pc with Ext2fsd app and go to home\pi\RetroPie\BIOS\and this is what inside of that folder was

where are my bioses ?

mediamogul

@N.A.R.E.K.96

Are you by chance running ROMs from an external USB using this method? If so, your BIOS files would have been moved to the USB drive at /retropie-mount/BIOS.

N.A.R.E.K.96

@mediamogul no,from sd card with retropie

Panther7

@N.A.R.E.K.96 Then you figured out the problem. The 6 bios files need to be in that folder.

N.A.R.E.K.96

@Panther7 ok I will try

N.A.R.E.K.96

Everything is working now I just need to copy bios directly into sd card.
