        @anotherwagner having it pre-loaded with ROMs is the illegal part. The person that you bought the card from didn't own the rights to the ROMs so right now you're in copyright violation, just as if you had downloaded a movie torrent or something. I'm not judging. I'm just saying that it wont be openly supported.

          @AlexMurphy $20 I though I was a good deal for a 32GB card and everything already loaded.

            @anotherwagner it definitely was. Have you ever heard the expression: "If it seems too good to be true, it probably is"

                  @anotherwagner just. Stop.

                  You need to read the rules which you agreed to do and abide by when you registered.

                  https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

                  And then you need to start fresh.

                  https://retropie.org.uk/docs/First-Installation/

                  If you want support with your illegal image- ask the guy you bought it from.

                  I'm getting awful tired of people ripping off our project and sending their customers here that they've duped into buying something that is free.

                  If you read the documentation it will answer 99% of your questions: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/

                      @anotherwagner You should first read the links you have been asked to read - which agreed to read when you registered here.
