If it does that then you know it found the 5200 bios. When you select 5200, the line below should change and it should say: Once that is set, then when you go to the system menu with Alt+Y (keyboard Y, not button Y), you set the system to 5200 on the first menu item. You can edit that file and set it to /home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS/5200.rom by making that line look like this: In the atari800.cfg file on line 47 is 5200_ROM. I would normally give you the keyboard shortcut to get directly to that menu, but the one we need is the only one that doesn't have a keyboard shortcut.Įssentially what you are trying to accomplish is the set the variable 5200_ROM. You can see the actual menu behind the Retroarch overlay there. So how does one enter a path to a BIOS in Atari.cfg? I appreciate all the help you guys, I can provide pictures and video of whatever if need be, just said in Atari 5200 Not Working - "Atari800/OS Emulation Sitting at that screen and pressing F1 just takes me to the Retroarch Quick Menu. I switched out all 5 BIOSes from at least 3 different sources. I have no way of knowing if my BIOSes are good, but per my original post: I went to Quick Menu > Options and set the system type to 5200, but that didn't work. But anyway, I had already done the rest of what you said, per my post above: I know I have cores on my machine because I can run like 17 other consoles from the home menu already, so I don't know what's up with that. Not even the BIOSes for other systems showed When I opened RetroArch from the RetroPie menu on the home screen, the Load Core option said "No items." Below that it just displayed a controller tester, "Start Remote RetroPad", and that's it. I did go to Main Menu > Settings > Directory and check that my BIOS folder was set to home\pi\RetroPie\BIOS, but in that folder nothing showed up except its subfolders. How to replicate the problem: Just launch any Atari 5200 I don't see an Emulator Configuration option in the RetroArch menu. USB Devices connected: 2 Retro-bit Sega Saturn Control Pads, 1 Raspberry Pi Official USB Keyboard Power Supply used: Official 5V 2.5A Power Supplyīuilt From: Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website (retropie-4.5.1-rpi2_rpi3.img) Pi Model or other hardware: Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ As far as I know, I've followed every instruction to a T, multiple times, in multiple different ways, and I've still gotten the same result every time.

I even created that weird config file that the wiki said to make.

And it just boots into the same error screen every time (pictured below). I got my ROM library in \\retropie\roms\atari5200.
