If you are using internal storage and cannot remove the drive:

1. Ensure Batocera is connected to Wi-Fi/Ethernet.

3. Navigate to the bios folder.
4. Drag and drop your BIOS files over the network.

6. Troubleshooting

• "The game starts but immediately goes back to the menu."
  • This usually means the BIOS is missing, named incorrectly, or the wrong version. Check the BIOS Analysis tool.
• "I see a black screen."
  • Wait a few moments. Some systems take time to boot. If it stays black for over 30 seconds, check the BIOS.
• "BIOS Analysis shows a Red X but I put the file there!"
  • Check the filename. It is case-sensitive on some file systems. SCPH5501.BIN is not the same as scph5501.bin. Batocera is generally case-insensitive, but exact naming helps. Check that you didn't add an extra file extension like .bin.bin (common on Windows if file extensions are hidden).
