  • I want to build my own arcade controls!
Hey guys. I hope you can help me. I spent so much time creating my GA hard drive, just to find out after turnng off and on my pc that it doesn´t boot at all. I landed on this forum, and I need some help. I am running an msi H81M-E33 motherboard. I only have the option for UEFI+LEGACY, I have tried everything and it won´t boot. I am so frustrated, I don´t know what to do. Can someone please help me?

Oh dude, I could have missed your post, why didn't you ask in the groovymame forum ?

Looks like a buggy UEFI I'm afraid, this happens on some HP mini PC too. Your best bet is to isble UEFI and boot the USB stick in LEGACY mode. If not, find a PC that can boot LEGACY, install GA from there, then swap the HDD to your CRT rig. I can help you to reconfigure what's necessary
