Something that was supposed to be a straightforward and simple set up turned into computer hell...as usual and my patience for computers is as thin as it gets lol

So I decided to check youtube and sure enough this guide shows everything the same way I did it:

same ISO and all too

So what happens is, ALL I get with any Bios file are the system settings, not even the main Saturn menu, if I choose to exit the system settings...i go back to the system settings, there's no end to it.

Booting a game from an ISO file or a virtual drive results in the same system settings screen and naturally google is of no use
