      So I've recently returned to the world of RetroPie, and I've setup a few consoles already. But I'm starting to have a few issues. While testing out Dreamcast emulation, I discovered my controls are VERY jumbled, (I'm using my PowerA Nintendo Switch wired controller) with the Dreamcast's A button being mapped to Y, and other things. Sega CD games refuse to load at ALL, and only take me back to the game selection. Could it be because of using lr-picodrive as my default emulator, the ROMs, or what else?

        UPDATE: I replaced the BIOS file with the BIOS for the Model 1 US version, and it STILL does not work. I have never had this issue in my previous RetroPie builds. Could it be the Popful Mail and Sonic CD roms I have?

          @Raider2747 Please add more info about your system as requested in https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first.

          What is the name of the BIOS file and where did you copy it ?

            I am running RetroPie 4.4.4, have about 4 or 5 systems running, and that's about all.
            UPDATE: Found the issue. The god-forsaken BIOS file was a .md file, I've got it solved.
