      Ok, how do I do both of those through this black screen.

      I know I sound like a bit of a noob, but I only slightly am with this. I bought an emulation kit off amazon, and it already had everything already installed on it. So how do I go about doing that through this screen?

      Thanks again for all your help, I really do appreciate it.

          Nevermind, I got everything working again by sudo apt install libvlc5 and sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade

              So, lol, hopefully this will be the last question I have to ask so I can leave you all alone.

              I have everything loaded back up now. Script updated, AND deleted the ps3 driver (before everything went dead on me). I got back into EmulationStation to pair my ps4 controller, and now when I go to pair the device, its stuck on searching until I pull the plug on the pi. What do I do about this? Any fix for it?

                    Well, the seller hasnt done anything, everything is working perfectly besides the bluetooth. Your sites image or not, this seems to be a common problem all over. I apologize for being a pain, just hoped you guys would give a little bit more insight on any possible fix on why the bluetooth is stuck on searching, you were so helpful before. Well, I'll ask elsewhere, thank you again for your time and responses.

                      @Msch87 it's stuck because you have the ps3controller driver installed.
