    So I googled around and found a couple of threads in various forums, but they are all pretty old and usually something that was resolved in an update. My problem is that after a long time of playing (> 30 minutes) without returning to ES, my rpi will just lock up and stay on the black screen with a white dot (cant ssh in).
    On the rare occassion it does work everything is fine but if I exit ES at that point, no keyboard input gets accepted anymore, but i can still ssh in and reboot.
    Both issues are always resolved after rebooting. I have my Pi overclocked quite a bit and the maximum temps it reaches are ~58c (for instance, PSX emulation). has this issue ever been definitely resolved or is it my OC settings?

    What overclock settings are you running? Also have a look at /.emulationstation/es_log.txt

    oc settings:

    
    #uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
    arm_freq=1000
    
    # for more options see http://elinux.org/RPi_config.txt
    core_freq=550
    h264_freq=0
    isp_freq=0
    avoid_pwm_p11=1
    sdram_freq =450
    over_voltage=6
    gpu_mem=128
    overscan_scale=1
    avoid_safe_mode=1
    force_turbo = 0

    this is my es_log.txt. from what i can see it actually doesnt write anything to it before it locks up?
