Hi there! I followed everything in this guide and at first everything was working perfectly, even played Sonic The Hedgehog! thec64community.online/thread/1613/pcuae-walkthrough-updated-thec64-modelsHowever I went to play the rest of the games in the list and selected the game list changer to access more games not in the carousel. It booted to a black screen with the image of a mouse cursor in the corner and stayed that way for around 20mins. I had to shut down using the power button, it rebooted and after The C64 screen and saying PCUAE Logo - Anniversary Edition, the screen now goes blank and doesn't load the Carousel anymore! I've even tried putting the USB after booting in default menu to reload the fake firmware and its still doing it  Any help? thank you |

First thing I'm going to do which I didn't do originally is update the firmware, seems it's on 1.3 and should be on 1.61?  |

Did you add games to it because standalone version does not have them ? |

Ofcause hence my first post "I followed everything in this guide and at first everything was working perfectly, even played Sonic The Hedgehog!" It was after selecting the game list changer that everything went to **** lol It doesn't boot to the carousel anymore, just keeps going black and by pressing lots of buttons it sometimes goes to the game list changer text, and then black screen again. |

The power supply to micro USB that comes with the C64 shows 1A..(EDIT) I've just reformatted the USB stick, did the menu again and reinstalled it to stick. Rebooted and it works again. Try to change to another list of games in the carasoul such as going from A-Z to E-F for oneload supplied through the manager and it breaks it again "CTRL+F1 – Carousel Gamelist Changer – Select one of the gamelist on the screen to load in the Carousel -" |

It needs enough power to load from the PCUAE USB Drive properly, and if it uses 5v 1A then its start to not been able to connect to other devices to that are connected so like a keyboard, it stops working because it tried to open the device and it can't.
Thats why it needs a power supply 5v 3A, I have tested it with alot with different power supplies.
