Emulation Station not starting
Hello,
I tried installing the Emulation Station on my 64GB Sandisk USB Drive with this package (version 1.5.7):
https://github.com/HerbFargus/Portable-Game-Station/releases
After the first start there were two dll's missing: msvcp140.dll and vcruntime140.dll. I downloaded the 64bit versions of the dll's and copied them into the Emulation Station directory. I still received the "missing dll error". After replacing the 64bit version with the 32bit version the error was gone. But Emulation Station is still not starting. I get the following screen:
After that I installed the updated Emulation Station:

Same problem. Even after installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2013 and 2015 Redistributable the problem persists.
I'm using a HP Compaq 7900 with Windows 10 64bit and an Intel Core Duo @3GHz and 5GB RAM. But I have the same problem on my Dell Latitude with Windows 7.
What can I do? I'm frustrated. It all looked so easy here: https://youtu.be/hPcMlL-_jo8
Thanks for your help.
Cheers, Martin
Martin,
I had a similar issue with my Core Duo systems and found that it was graphics related... the onboard graphics, which in my case, is an Intel GMA 3100 did not work...once I added a separate graphics card (GE Force GT 730) it worked like a charm.

Hi Steve and thanks for your reply. I just wondered because I get the same message on a workstation AND a laptop. But I will take a look at the onboard graphics.
Cheers, Martin
Hey everyone. I have managed to get this working with most of my ROMs except for psx ROMs not wanting to load properly in retroarch and n64 ROMs not wanting to load at all in retroarch. I watched the following youtube vid and it seemed to work just fine for me doing it exactly how its done in the vid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqMiZBN7if8&list=PLCgWKel4OmxWmZrMOy0vb5U9lpMk57r1l&index=4
I have even transferred it onto a usb and used it on other machines just fine from the usb. To get around the issue with the n64 games not playing in retroarch, I use project 64 and for the psx games, I use ePSXe205 until I workout how to solve the issue
