It's probably a good idea to enable ''SaveRAM Autosave Internal'' (under ''Save Settings'') so game saves will be written to your harddrive while RetroArch is running.

This particular core requires some specific care. You should have the correct BIOS (if not follow the [[Dummies_Guide:_RetroArch#BIOS_and_System_files|BIOS and System files]] section), you'll also need to make sure your game has a metadata file in the form of a .cue, .toc, .ccd, or .m3u file. The most common metadata people use is .cue, and if your PS1 game lacks a metafile, you can [[Cue_sheet_(.cue)|create one.]]<br>An easier way to get around metadata issues, is to get your games from a better source. [[Need_Games%3F|Redump]] PS1 games come in .bin/.cue format and work on mednafen without issue.
There's 3 different menu drivers for RetroArch to choose from, RGUI, GLUI and the default XMB. To switch between them go ''Settings'' → ''Driver Settings'' and switch ''Menu Driver''. You'll need to restart RetroArch for changes to take effect.
You can change your wallpaper, text color settings, text size (DPI Override, GLUI only), toggle mouse support, and whether to display boxart in the ''Menu Settings''.
You can change RetroArch's menu font, but it'll only work for the GLUI menu driver(only on 1.2.2, newer builds have changed GLUI significantly and it no longer uses the OSD font). To change it, under ''Onscreen Display Settings'' hit ''OSD Message Font'' and select a .ttf font file.<br>Should be noted that Onscreen Display Settings are for the yellow popup messages that RetroArch displays, and GLUI happens to use fonts from it, all of the other settings here only change the popup message. XMB loads its font from <code>$assets_directory/xmb/monochrome/font.ttf</code>, so you can replace the default font .ttf with a custom one. The same can be done with the default backgrounds and icons.
