      @edmaul69 mouse doesn't seem to work either. My settings were already the same as yours except I didn't have the status bar turned on. Could it be something to do with my controller mappings in lrvice? I haven't changed anything so it should be default.

      Edit: my version is 3.0 as well

        @quicksilver can you open up your file /opt/retropie/configs/c64/retroarch.cfg and add this line if it isnt already there.

        input_grab_mouse_toggle_btn = "nul"
        

        now replace nul with whatever button number your select button is. also add these how they are

        keyboard_gamepad_mapping_type = "1"
        keyboard_gamepad_enable = "true"

          @edmaul69 is there an easy way to find out what button number my select key is?

            @quicksilver if you are using an xbox 360 controller it should be "8" or "6". you can setup your controller in emulationstation again and see what number shows when you choose select. remember to set your hotkey to select if you do configure your controller.

              @edmaul69 added the lines that you suggested to the that file. I did remap my controller. My hotkey was unassigned (was the this something added recently?) So I assigned it to select at your suggestion. But I am still unable to access the on screen keyboard or navigate the vice gui.

                @quicksilver can you please hook up a mouse and keyboard? F11 i think is the vice gui or keyboard. Might be another f key. Also see if your mouse works. Another thing you could try is remove or rename the file /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg and update retroarch from binary. Mine is on 1.6.9 which you can see in the corner when you go into the retroarch gui. Maybe you are on too old of a version.

                  @edmaul69 I will try this when I get home from work. Out of curiosity is your controller option set to retropad or vice controller? I very much appreciate all of your help with this. After a ton of tinkering my pi is almost setup perfectly (after c64 is setup I just need to figure out controller options for intellivision)

                      @edmaul69 the earlier edits you had me do to my config file should I have placed them above or below the #includeconfig line?

                            @edmaul69 so f10 on the keyboard will bring up the vice gui but my mouse doesn't work. My retroarch version is the same as yours. I have tried everything else suggested except removing my retroarch config and then updating. However I don't see an option to update retroarch from binary, only from source. Should I update from source?

                                @edmaul69 I deleted the config file then updated retroarch. My retroarch gui definitely looks different now (looks like yours). However it didn't solve the problem.

                                  @quicksilver you didnt delete the retroarch.cfg in c64 did you? You deleted the one in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg correct? Continue to test with a real mouse hooked up as you are testing. In about 45 minutes i will look and see if i can find something else you need to do.

                                      @quicksilver remove the settings i told you to add in the retroarch.cfg in c64. Regular mouse doesnt work with those settings. We need to see if a regular mouse works for you

                                        @edmaul69 correct, I deleted the one in "all" not the one in the c64 folder.

                                        I was playing with the settings and I set the controller to vice controller I can now open and close the onscreen keyboard! (I had tried this before I updated and it didn't work but now it does) So a little bit of progress! No if I can get the mouse functional I will be all set.

                                            @quicksilver in your controls under vice joystick is user 1 analog to digital type set to none?
