I find that launching certain games seems to be hit or miss as far as the BIOS is concerned, even though I think I have the right files. Is there a method that confirms you have the correct BIOS prior to launching a title?

    In RetroArch you can go to core settings I believe and check the bios files. It’ll give a checkmark if you have it and give the MD5 hash

    There probably isn’t an automated solution for this, but you could just get the SHA checksum of your BIOS dumps and compare them to others’ checksums on the internet.

    As for how, well, you can use the shasum command in the terminal on linux. for windows, powershell has get-filehash. and 7zip for windows has a checksumming function as well.

      I went into Emudeck and there’s a BIOS check there, but only for some systems. Thank you for the tip.
