Quick tip for non techy users who are afraid of going into BIOS to change boot order: as soon as the pc/laptop is turned ON, press F12 to get into the "quick boot" menu. The quick boot menu is simpler as all it shows are the devices that can be choose to boot the pc/laptop. From here they just need to pick the name of their drive by brand. Worst case they choose their windows boot or something else and they can restart and try again. I work with computers and F12 has proven to be a "universal" key for quick boot menu for different models of DELL, Lenovo, HTP, etc. It may be not for ALL models but is "almost" guarantee and easier to execute 😊

Recommend Emulation Station (ES-DE) with a standalone HDD, and set it up with RetroArch along with other standalone emulators. I wanted to use SSD however for the large amount of retro ROMs it works better with a 3-5 TB HDD. Also the slower speed of a HDD is not a problem with older console systems. Save the SSD to use with newer PC games. No need to boot into a separate environment as ES-DE works well.

I just got the Minisforum UM690S Venus, following your instructions (Installed my batocera SSD inside PC). Went through Win11 setup/update 1st. Then went into BIOS on restart and changed boot order. After saving/exit, on restart I got an error saying "Verification Failed", to fix it I had to go back into BIOS and turn "Secure Boot" off (Security tab). On restart it kept trying to reset PC, had to tap a button (QUICK only gives a couple seconds) and it gave a prompt, I chose "Always boot", and PC restarted and booted into Batocera. If you plan to dual boot with Win 11 (I have Win 11 on NVME and batocera on internal SSD), I read you'll have to go into BIOS everytime you want to use Win11 and turn secure boot back on and of course change boot order back to Win11 drive, and vice versa to use Batocera.

@lexlopez15

I also use retrobat as I find it easier. Turns out, there isn't that much difference between the 2 as they both use emulation station as the backend...several reviews have tested both and some games run better on one than the other but that has more to do with the optimization of the emulators on windows or Linux... I say retrobat is better due to the windows integration since you can find a game and be up and running within a few clicks as opposed to transferring files back and forth with batocera on a separate drive.... however, the best overall frontend from what I've seen and read is Launchbox/Bigbox...it has just about every feature you could want for a small 1 time fee. Although they do have a free version.

If its an old 32bit PC you will have to download the older version that on the site. V5.25 I think it is. If its an older PC but is 64bit then latest version may still work, you can only test and see. If you end up using 5.25 then older iit wont have as many systems supported, less settings as I think it uses older versions of emulators. As for usb2. I read on the official forum there should be no difference for actual game performance whether you are using usb2,usb3,hdd or an ssd. For most systems anyway, perhaps the very high tier of emulation like ps3 then usb3 may be beneficial But if you are using an old PC you wouldnt be able to run ps3 anyway. An advantage of usb 3 and higher is your system may boot a little quicker and disc based games may load a little quicker. However if you are also transferring files over via its usb port file transfer are very slow over usb2,so a pain when moving lots of files or larger disc based roms.

Ordered the same equipment as reviewed here, followed the instructional video that RGG has created (top notch btw). Ran into an issue and have been stuck for a couple days trying to find a work around. I'm at the part where my laptop boots up with the Fikwot Solid State Drive, it looks just like the video with the latest Batocera version 38 launching, after the Batocera Linux splash screen (the 17:25 mark of this instructional video) my screen goes black. This of course is where the next step, Pressing F1 to gain access to Linux file system is suppose to occur. So I'm unable to transfer the Bios and Rom files from the usb flash drive. I did some digging around, Reddit, Batocera Forums etc, but haven't been able to find a workaround. I even took a USB Keyboard and attached it to my laptop, my laptop recognized the new keyboard but still no help. I also tried various different bios settings with the laptop changing keyboard settings. Function key combinations didn't work for me as well. Anyone have this happen during installation? I've thought of rolling back the version of Batocera as my next attempt.

Batocera is for that. If you don't want to have an operating system on the PC (like Windows), and you directly want to boot to console menu type of OS, then Batocera is the way to go. With only Batocera installed your computer will directly boot to it, as this IS the operating system now. This means your PC will become a console, but with no Windows OS, no browsers and other "computer stuff". Of course if you need Windows OS too, you will have to make your PC to dual boot - with Windows installed on one drive, and Batocera installed on other, but every time you turn the PC on, you have to chose what you want to start.

If it is large enough for the games you want. I think that those people become too spoiled and all of them talk about some 1-2 TB SSD drives which I think is unnecessary, especially when you personally play only selected games and especially when you can do the same on HDD or big enough flash drive... From the video I saw that Batocera now is about 8GB file, then you have 1GB of Batocera set up files he showed, then you will have to consider the exact games you want, then the free space you will need for just in case and this is it... Bro, before a few years I installed Batocera on MEGA old PC that my father used back in time with 160GB old HDD drive, with all the games on it, with scraped images etc., so I don't know what all of those people in KZbin talk about "2TB SSD drives" and such... I think that they are just spoiled...

You probably wouldn't want to do batocera like in this vid if you also want modern pc games. Afaik Batocera doesn't support them since it's emulation focused, and more importantly while linux gaming is amazing compared to years ago it's still not to the standard of windows in terms of compatibility unfortunately. Instead you'd maybe want to look into just installing all the games on a portable drive and then using something like playnite or launchbox as a front end that way if you cared about that. I don't know how well Steam plays with removable storage but it should be a solvable issue.

You can put batocera on one but he isn’t showing that you should look specifically for that. So go look it up and stop watching a video that isn’t for you

If I do this with an SSD drive, to hold me over, can the drive be dropped into a micro PC like the HP elitedesk in your other video and be good to go

Do I have to change the boot order or is there something like a "batocera.exe" on the ssd that I could just double click and open Batocera like Launchbox or Playnite?

Do you have trouble using nkits? I get a warning popup which then freezes the system. So I just use ISOs for my dreamcast games.

Is Batocera strictly for original roms. Or are you also able to run texture mods and ROM hacks like WWF No mercy mods. Sorry for the noob question

I know you can run some mods I'm not sure if everything works though. Never tried a no mercy mod on there.

My batocera booted into a root menu and not the way yours did. I’m trying to copy the bios in to batocera. Can I do that from the root menu?

yes with linux commands, but without the GUI, it won't work. You may have a corrupted image file. I would download it again and try.

So I got a preloaded HDD so I could edit it to what I want without having to set everything up. My issue is I cannot get my mini PC to boot directly into the HDD to run RetroBat. I keep having to open the RetroBat folder and running the exe. I have looked in the boot setup in the bios but the HDD does not show up as an option. Is there any way to fix this??
