Hi, sorry for the late reply. I worked out how to disable hotkeys and that fixed it.

Thanks for the advice. I’ve just done the update. I just need to test it again.

It’s this one.

Ok, i can confirm that the problem happens with other emulators. About 5 mins into castlevania bloodlines on megadrive the framerate dropped for a few seconds then the controller disconnected and keyboard wouldn’t respond.

Another thing i thought, i have a 1st gen model B so it only has 256MB of ram, could it be that retropie is trying to use too much ram or somthing?

I didn’t intall any extra drivers for the arcade stick. It just worked plug and play last time and it does detect it and map buttons to it no problem.

Oddly i just managed to play somthing for an hour with no problems on snes and tried the GBA for about 5 mins with no problems. I’m gonna do some more tests with other emulators now.

Actually, maybe not. Looked at my adaptor and it says that it’s 1000mAh. Could i need more than that? I’m using a different keyboard so i guess it could have higher power usage, although it’s pretty basic.

That’s a good point actually. I can’t remember what my power supply’s power is but i think it’s weak, i got it from a phone accessory shop. Does this look more like the right thing?
