The part in my es_systems.cfg like this:

<system>
    <fullname>Atari 800</fullname>
    <name>atari800</name>
    <path>~/RetroPie/roms/atari800</path>
    <extension>.xex .XEX .a52 .A52</extension>
    <command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 "/opt/retropie/emulators/atari800/bin/atari800 %ROM%" "atari800"</command>
    <platform>atari800</platform>
    <theme>atari800</theme>
  </system>

Or do you mean with the “emulator screen” the cartridge selevtion screen where you have to choose which type of cartridge you wanna start? Because I also see that every time I start a Game.

The problem for me is that every time I try to change something at the xboxdrv, I mess it up, the xboxdrv doesn’t load anymore nothing works and the raspberry pi just loads the xpad driver. :(

Did you see that I edited my post before?
I configured my xboxdrv like on this page:

https://github.com/retropie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Setting-up-the-XBox360-controller

But I did choose Step 3 (init.d script with the daemon -D Option) because of performance advantages. Is there any possibility to configure it that way how I want it to be? And where do I have to do it?

Thank you!
