maclem8223 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 (edited) So the other day I switched my OS (Win 10 Pro) over to a 960 Evo M.2 drive and I'm getting an error now when opening Big Box (Lifetime Premium License). My LaunchBox install is on a separate internal drive that was not touched during the reinstall of the OS. Below is the error I am getting when trying to open BigBox. All my games, emulators etc. are within the Launchbox Folder. I just want to be sure that by reinstalling Launchbox as directed by the error, that I will not lose anything in the folder (images, games, emulators, etc). I know what it says but my install has about 3TB worth of data in it. I don't want to have to do it all over again. Not sure if something was saved on my previous OS drive for Launchbox that may be causing this error now; however, I'm pretty sure I saved all settings and everything to my LaunchBox drive and not the OS drive. Any help would be appreciated before I reinstall. Thanks for your time and an awesome program! Edit: Also, now clicking on a game within LaunchBox no longer opens the game; yet nothing was changed within the LaunchBox Folder. Edit #2: Crossed my fingers and reinstalled. All libraries are still available so no issue there and BigBox opens like normal; however, still having the issue of none of the emulators working. Direct 3D errors and whatnot on Dolphin. Don't think this has anything to do with LaunchBox at this point. May just have to go back through the tutorials and reinstall the emulators themselves, i.e. CEMU, Retroarch, Dolphin.... Sigh....Hate it when things don't work out like they should lol. Edited August 27, 2017 by maclem8223 Update of issue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Dice. Installed and getting errors with Dolphin. This is with a GTX 1070 FE (fully updated drivers). Just reinstalled Dolphin as well and getting the same errors. Thanks for the directx link though. Same type of errors when trying OpenGL as well. Edited August 27, 2017 by maclem8223 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Did you install up to date video card drivers ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, one of the first things I do with a fresh OS install. That is why the error in my previous post is quite odd to me. Of course a 1070 supports it.

Lordmonkus Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Well it's definitely a Direct X issue, you may need to try reinstalling a couple of different version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what I'm thinking. I'm going to go through each emulator and reinstall them see if that helps at all. Need to either way as the only one working right now is CEMU.

maclem8223 Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 Ok, so I'm a little confused as to what the problem is with Dolphin (Direct3d wise). Just reinstalled PCSX2 running on Hardware Direct3D11 and it is running flawlessly. Gonna have to keep troubleshooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Check the Dolphin forums and see what they have to say about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maclem8223 Posted August 27, 2017 Author Share Posted August 27, 2017 Sorry to waste everyone's time. I figured it out. I didn't think the errors I was getting could even remotely be related to this but apparently it was the entire problem. I was using RDP to reinstall the emulators and what not. Had a show I was watching so Remote Desktop seemed thebest way to do this. Well, RDP was the entire problem. This system is my HTPC and connected directly to my main tv. Switched to the HTPC directly and ran Dolphin........smooth as butter. Same with retroarch. Again, I didn't think this could have caused the issues that I was having. My apologies to the community. Note to anyone that may have these random errors pop-up. DON'T USE RDP TO REINSTALL EMULATORS.....and then try and run them from RDP. K, I'm done yelling....lol.

DOS76 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 lol yeah I've tried to configure emulators over RDP and more than a few don't work remotely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing was working correctly. Convenience (or so I thought), just waited a couple hours of my time......lol. On a brighter note, just got a tracking # for my NCase M1 which this build will be transferred to. Stoked about the case, been drooling over it for a couple years now and finally pulled the trigger. This will be my ultimate HTPC. 6700k, 32GB DDR4, 1080ti (on the way), Z270I ROG STRIX and some other stuff. Love my PC's but love gaming from my couch as well.....not a big mouse and keyboard fan.
