Basically I open RA, i select core (DeSmuMe) and try to load a gba file, it crashesafter a second of white screen. tried loading the file directly through the content menu, adding it via scans etc, nothing seems to change it at all. totally lost, but want to start using retroarch and its cores for RA

not sure how to compress this event viewer log down, but this is what comes up on it - i deleted some of the blank data (app name, time pc etc)
