Where Do BIOS Files Go in Batocera?

Batocera uses a simple folder structure. BIOS files belong in: The "solid story" for a Batocera BIOS pack

/userdata/bios/

The exact subfolder structure varies by system:

PSX – /userdata/bios/ (put scph5500.bin, scph5501.bin, scph5502.bin directly here)
PS2 – /userdata/bios/pcsx2/bios/
Neo Geo – /userdata/bios/ (neogeo.zip)
Sega CD / Saturn – Various .bin files in /userdata/bios/

A proper BIOS pack is pre-organized so you can just extract its contents into /userdata/bios/ and Batocera will find everything automatically. Part 7: Where to Find a Reliable Batocera

6. Troubleshooting

"The game starts but immediately goes back to the menu."
- This usually means the BIOS is missing, named incorrectly, or the wrong version. Check the BIOS Analysis tool.
"I see a black screen."
- Wait a few moments. Some systems take time to boot. If it stays black for over 30 seconds, check the BIOS.
"BIOS Analysis shows a Red X but I put the file there!"
- Check the filename. It is case-sensitive on some file systems. SCPH5501.BIN is not the same as scph5501.bin. Batocera is generally case-insensitive, but exact naming helps. Check that you didn't add an extra file extension like .bin.bin (common on Windows if file extensions are hidden).

Q4: Do handheld systems (Game Boy, NDS) need BIOS?

Game Boy/Color/Advance: No, but GBA BIOS improves accuracy.
Nintendo DS: Yes, if using melonds core. Requires bios7.bin, bios9.bin, firmware.bin.
