Game won't launch in LB/BB, but works in RetroArch

[RevJoe98]

I got lb lined up and the games were launching, then I build the arcade cabinet and plugged in the xtension 2-player w/trackball (this is when it started going bad) and the mame arcade games work, but RetroArch is freezing after launching through lb/bb (the screen is black and a blue circle with a white exclamation mark tries to come up but freezes before seeing the whole thing). I have to go behind the machine and use task manager to close RetroArch to get into anything else. I launch it with just RetroArch and it is playable, though it lags after you do a few button pushes and I can't escape twice to get out either. Someone please help.
