      I am new to Raspberry Pi and I am trying to set up some games using the Damaso Ultimat V3 img which I wrote to a 32gb SD card. It boots up fine but when a game is selected the resolution is terrible. Large square pixels. I have seen on Youtube where other people have installed this image and the resolution is great and the games look almost like the original games. Is there some way to fix this problem?
      Any help would be greatly appreciated.
      Thanks

        @columbo 3rd party images are not supported here dude. Start from the official image and we will be more than able to assist.

          as I said,... I am new to Rasberry Pi so I don't know what you are referring to as 3 party images and the "original" image?

                @columbo just go to the official image and download that. The documentation is excellent and it's really easy to get it up and running.
