Roms (Black Screen) After 4.0.2 Fresh Install

Kaladin

So I've been running on a PI2 with Retro v 3.X for a while now. I just grabbed a new PI3 and decided to give it a go at Retropie so i Downloaded the latest version 4.0.2 last night burned it onto a new SD card loaded up my roms and..... black screen. I know these rom files are good because it works fine on my other PI. Any suggestions on what to check? I load the ROM it says Launching with lr-snex-9x-next and then the screen just goes black.

Pi Model: 3
RetroPie Version Used: 4.0.2
Built From: (Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website,
USB Devices connected: Keyboard
Controller used: None
Error messages received: None Black Screen
Guide used: (Mention if you followed a guide): None
File: (File with issue - with FULL path):

How to replicate the problem: Select ROM from Emulation station

Well you didn't give us much to go off from. Not to state the obvious but are you using your power adapter from your Rpi2? The Rpi3 requires a 5v 2.5 amp power adapter.

@tehswiftone

Sorry i realize i didn't have much info but I updated with as much information as I have. Yes I am using the PI3 power adapter. I don't really have more of an error message to help with as the screen is just black and stays black.

Which system ? Which Emulator ? Which Rom ? What's the rom filename ?

(get emulator name from https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/runcommand)

seems as though your post update didn't show - possibly some cache issue with the forum.

have you tried another switching to another snes emulator ?

anything logged in /dev/shm/runcommand.log after launching ? (can do cat /dev/shm/runcommand.log from a terminal.
