      Hello all new to recalbox but loving it currently turning 2old pc's into these recall machines as my parents call them and I am having trouble with sending roms over a local network in my house I can get the manager open but it says something about stopping the emulation first

      Then is it possible to use 1 sd card/usb drive and if possible in a hdd to run recalbox and store all the roms?

      The last issue I have is no matter how I put psx games on the usb it won't load the game even if I can get it to show up in the menu is there a solution for x86

        @smilocrypto Hello!
        I'm not sure if I could understand your doubts, but from what I understood:

        • You do not know how to stop Emulationstation
        • You want to use a pendrive to store the ROMS, OR, Do you want to run the Recalbox entirely by a pendrive
        • You can not run the PSX games.

        Since these are your doubts, what can I try to help you with:

        • It is possible to stop Emulationstation directly from the web manager, I'm not sure of the correct path now, but search for a "Stop Emulationstation" option, and there is the option to start or restart as well. Another option is to do this directly on the computer, I do not remember now if you just need to press F4 or CTRl + F4, but it's something like that. When stopping the Emulationstation, the screen will turn black, but the recalbox keeps working, do not get confused.
        • It is possible to install the recalbox direct in the HD, like main system, but also it is possible to install to turn totally via Pendrive, as it prefers. But, it is possible, for example, to install the system in the HD, and some ROMS in a pen drive, and make the Recalbox read the ROMS by the pen drive. This option is in the manual, at the link: https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Use-an-external-usb-storage-device-on-recalbox-(EN) (the first part of tutorial is optional, as you can see)
        • Only these extensions are accepted: ".iso / .img / .bin / .pbp", in addition, you need to have the BIOS properly inserted in the BIOS folder. If none of this is a problem, you can try changing the emulator / emulation core to test. And there is the possibility that the problem being your notebook does not meet the minimum requirements for the emulator to work.

        But other options for moving the ROMS to Recalbox are:
        Use WINSCP (https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Network-access-with-WinSCP-(EN))
        I think in the PC version it is possible to access a kind of file explorer by pressing F1 (I'm not sure, I use the RPi version, but I've seen it in a video)
        If you are trying for the cell phone, another option is to use the program Es file Explorer on android, open the app and go to Network, Search, and you should find the recalbox and be able to transfer the roms bigger than 256mb.
