      Does the .BIN go into a specific file in BIOS or just by its self

              @streetsweep Which files are you referring to? The bios? You need SCPH1001.BIN. I thought you had this.

                    @streetsweep 2 of the 3 entries (4 total files) are the same...assuming you're using one of those 2 (recommended) emulators, you have the file you need.

                      @streetsweep The recommended emulator for PSX is lr-pcsx-rearmed so use SCPH1001.BIN. This might come as a lower case file name, if so, re-name it and place it in the BIOS folder.

                        @AlexMurphy so as long as I get the ir-pcsx-rearmed file the SPCH1001.BIN should be in there right

                          @streetsweep lr-pcsx-rearmed is one of the emulators, not a file you need to get.

                              @streetsweep No. Have you put the bios in the bios folder?

                                @streetsweep Pretty sure it's installed by default (it's an l, not an i btw). You can always check the setup program (see here: https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/First-Installation#installing-additional-emulators it's listed in the "main" section).

                                  @liquidzoo It is. You don't need to do anything with the cores / emulators. He just needs the correct bios, correctly named in the bios folder then add ROMs to the PSX ROMS folder.

                                            @streetsweep Then the ROMs aren't in the right format (or possibly the right place). Look at the guide again.
