      @BuZz yeah, shut down everytime, I've been so careful with everything. just formatted the SD Card and its pooped. A 64gb card now only has 56mb on it. Guess I'll need to purchase a new one, I assume there's no way to save it?

        @AdamHurford you don't see the full space on a PC as it doesn't understand the RPI filesystem.

          @BuZz Anyway to fix that? I've reformatted and tried to copy over the retropie image but there's not enough space. Apologies if I'm being dumb.

            @AdamHurford how are you trying to copy the image. Did you check the install instructions on the wiki?

                @AdamHurford you need to write it with disk imager application. Check the official install instructions on the wiki.

                    @BuZz one last question. My usb with all my roms etc on it, will I be able to just plug it in and let them all load on, or should I format that too and start completely fresh?

                      @AdamHurford assuming the USB stick is fine, you can use it to copy the roms back on as before.
