No gamepad detected - total newbie
-
Hello I have swapped out the original board in an arcade 1up for a raspberry pi. I am able to get to the configuration menu but it does not detect my wired controller nor my wired keyboard in any of the USB ports
Raspberry pi 4/400 downloaded from retropie.org.uk
Raspberry Pi 4 4GB purchased from amazon: https://a.co/d/1p74mhn
Running through a video converterWould love to get this running but have hit a dead end despite reading forums and watching videos. Nothing has worked. I’m a total pi newbie!!

What controller and keyboard are you using?

@AWiiEnthusiast I am not sure what the controller is. There are no makers marks. It looks like a knockoff Xbox controller. It’s a 5V-500mA wired controller I would sometimes use with my pc. The keyboard is a Logitech G915 X LIGHTSPEED.
I had also tried connecting the controller to a powered usb hub but that didn’t help it detect either. I just noticed during the start up process when the system is doing all its checks, I get a small red line with a white x that says “ A start job is running for dhcpcd on all interfaces (33s / 1min

Are the keyboard/controller not detected even if they are directly connected to the Pi's USB ports ? Are you using a proper power supply for the Pi ? Does it work if you connect just the keyboard directly to the Pi ?
