        I worked it out from your configs - you should sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade on your system as you are not up to date with kernel/firmware.

        I'm still unable to reproduce the problem with your binaries and configs on a RPI3 I have here (Testing with Tekken 3 - loads/runs fine).

            Is there any reason why that would be? i mean, i downloaded latest version and first thing i did on this build was to an update core system.

            I only rebuilt this SD a few days ago because i was originally having issues with my 360xbox controller and that damn xboxdrv driver, every time i updated my old SD from last year i said no to the kernel update. and i figured it was time to get with new kids on the block haha

              @a7mag3ddon You didn't update the system packages ?

                I thought thats what the Core was (ill check the menus choices once this finishes updating), after that i installed all emulators (easier than adding 1 by 1) and removed the few i didnt want.

                  @a7mag3ddon Core packages ? That's just retroarch, emulationstation, the retropie menu, and the runcommand launcher.

                  To update retropie fully you need to do "Update all installed packages" from the main menu (it asks about updating system packages too).

                      Still going, but its the one where on the blue update screen it usually says " do you also want to update the kernel that runs the underlying OS " or something like that.

                          i deleted the input config and every time i set up the pad it skips the right trigger and says NOT DEFINED. no matter how slow or quick it skips.

                          anyways i didnt bother with the right trigger went to test the psx again. still same, yellow screen on boot.

                            @a7mag3ddon use the xpad driver.

                            Something is broken on your setup I guess. I'm out of ideas.

                              I am using the xpad driver, the old one stopped working in V 3.7? or rather kernel 4.1.21 ?

                              ill try a remove and reinstall of it.

                                @a7mag3ddon xpad driver works fine on new kernels. Check drivers section.

                                  I don't know what to say, it was working until we updated the system about an hour ago (the gamepad)

                                  I think we have both spent too much time on this? I started trying to sort this 8pm yesterday, stopped at 2am, then spent most of the day trying to get it going as well and its now close to 2am again haha.

                                  for me personally i will just go back to my build from yesterday, copy the bios files to /home/pi/bios and just use the emulator from there instead.

                                  If i ever rebuilt from scratch again ill be safe knowing that it will work.

                                  Thanks for all your time, it really is appreciated i know its not easy diagnosing other peoples problems.

                                      I know ist old but I had the same problem.
                                      It´s working if you rename the bios file to uppecase (SCPH1001.BIN).

                                        @ango The RetroPie Documentation on PSX is correct and up-to-date. Your installation of lr-pcsx-rearmed is outdated and should be updated through RetroPie-Setup.

                                          @eckaji : I´ve made a clean 4.4 Install and had the same problem. Only renaming it to uppercase, solved my problem

                                            @ango Yes, because you are on a clean 4.4 install. lr-pcsx-rearmed has been updated since that official image was made.
