      @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.

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

                  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 Then you figured out the problem. The 6 bios files need to be in that folder.
