            @rufus377 You could try seeing what the errors are in the log file.

            /dev/shm/runcommand.log

                  Where was the image built from: (Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website, Berryboot, or on top of existing OS etc.. - please provide the filename of any image used)

                  Something you should have included with your first post as is required by the rules of the forum, btw.

                          What happens when you try to run them? Have you tried reinstalling the emulators for each platform? What is in the error log mentioned in the post above?

                              Sounds like you'll have to delete some psx isos in order to free up some space for your other files.

                                  How much free space is there on the sd card? In emulationstation, press F4 then post the values below Size, Used, Avail here.
