      Windows 10 PC with folder for roms shared

      So im trying to get network boot working but none of the options seem to be working whether I try option 1 or 2. even the alternate option of 1 still results in nothing being found. I've got the pi set to wait for network and i can access the folder via other pc so its being shared. I'm lost.

        Can you post the es_log.txt from \\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation ?
