Awesome video, I saw the reason you weren’t getting higher than 60fps was because you had it capped in the settings, seems totally possible to do more off a flash, who would have thought!

I did this with an SD Card on a laptop that doesn't have a Hard Drive. Works great!

[TheRetroRaven]

Thank you so much ETA - this really inspired me to start doing my own retro gaming projects. Keep up the good work!

If you have 2 usb drives you can use the image on the first usb to install lakka onto the 2nd usb drive.

Wow ...Thanks for another option for Roms! I Like Hyperspin too, but it's just a pain to setup. I bet if the roms where on the hard drive, it would probably boost up the frame rate too. Thanks again for sharing.

You don't actually need to format the USB drive when you are writing an image into it. The image contains the partition table, the filesystem and everything

[atticusnari]

Is there anyway to double the USB as an emulator and where the roms are stored?

[carsong]

mine rebooted, and the logo keeps showing then disapearing and vise versa idk if it will load any fix?!

[cardboardboxsoftwaredev]

Is there a way to allocate Lakka more storage instead of using another USB drive?

[IceOnRiver]

Nice Video. ! Maybe you can write in the describtion on what hardware you did the testing ? ( I know you mentioned this in your videos, but it would be more easier to look it up later on).

Thx,
IoR

After installing Lakka on my usb drive, how do i expand the memory. Also I do not get all of the menu items or choices you show. There is no place to adjust the video output and many other features

[itskhiphop]

Hey ETA thanks for the help so far. I noticed that when I get Lakka to launch live I don't have the "start core" or "load core" options that you have. Did I miss something?

[cesarcpr]

Hi! Thanks for the tutorials, they're very helpful. I was wondering where you download the roms from?

[devanshgarg]

What about if we use ventoy for booting, and also keep the roms in the bootable usb?

[harvey]

Could you use a dedicated graphics card (like the GT 1030) with no issues on Lakka?

[rhomis]

I can't get LAKKA to work on 3 old Pentium-4 PCs 32-bit. Two different Dells and one Compaq Presario. Never seems to get past 65% installing from the USB. Never can get LIVE to work. Same results on all 3.

I tried an older version of LAKKA and on all3 PCs, I was able to install LAKKA enough that when it reboots, I get a quick flash of a LAKKA menu and then a solid white screen that does nothing.

The LAKKA forum is useless right now, I have to go through hoops-n-Loops to be a ranking member to ask a simple question next week or so.

i have an old atom netbook im sure this is the specs but not used in like a year Atom D425 and has 2gb ram and gma 3150 and 500gb hdd i wanted to know what system would run good on this netbook as it would be cool to use LAKKA as the os on this old netbook thanks

[HUB]
