      Ok, sooooo, a couple questions;

      1. My controller worked yesterday day, but as of yesterday night, it lets me scroll to the game system I want, but once I am in the game none of the buttons are working. I have reconfigured it...

      2. I have loaded several roms, but I keep getting different messages.

      Most of my Atari games are doing the same thing. Atlantis loads, but the controller doesn't work once in the game. Last night I played a smidgen of sonic and a smidgen of spiderman for the Genesis. Also, my sega master system games are giving me an error message (pictures attached)![alt text](![image url](image url)). I'm sorry if I'm becoming a pain. I am just at a total loss and need some help!

      Jeff

        @Vakdog this topic's title is a tipical example of how to not get help on a forum.

          @meleu, uh oh. What do I need to do to actually get help? I've never been on a forum before either...

            Did you try to reconfigure your controller again within retropie? Edit: Nevermind, I see you tried that.
            Also what controller are you using?

              @TwoGuidosGaming I did. It still does the same thing. What's odd is that it lets me navigate through the different gaming systems (home page?) but once I choose a game, it no longer functions. I am using a Tomee SNES Retro USB Super Nintendo Controller.

                I have changed the thread title - No need for non descriptive dramatic titles in caps in general - apart from our one which should be read first, which never is unfortunately.

                  @BuZz thank you sir!!! Ok, so now, SOME of the Atari games are working, 2 Genesis games load but the controller does nothing once it's on the actual game. As far as the Atari, I'm wondering if I just got some bad roms? As for the Genesis, Master System, and NES, I'm still at a loss.
