Games not launching NES Retroarch

[ArcadeKid19]

Hi guys, I’m new to all this. I’ve set up launchbox first with NES and Retroarch. Games have all gone in but when I try and play. Only the background comes up with music or Sometimes a small window comes up but I can’t play games. In big box mode it goes to play then goes to black screen. I’ve searched high and low trying to figure it out but can’t. Any help would be great? I’m using Nestopia. I followed ETA primes videos for setup. So I think I did right.

Have you specified the correct core to use in Tools/Manage emulators/Retroarch/Associated Platforms tab, find NES and check if it is using Nestopia. If not use the dropdown to select the correct core.Also the name there should EXACTLY match what you called the platform in Launchbox.

Thank you, I know have working. It was to do with Retroarch. I deleted rewatched ETA Primes tutorial and I then got it working.
