SNES - Invalid System Name Frustrating

Tanveer · August 17, 2016

Hi guys,

I've been going back and forth with Hyperspin and this error message of "Super Nintendo Entertainment System" Invalid System Name or snes9x.exe is not working".

Everything works outside of Hyperspin so its not the emulator. Could someone direct me in the right direction?! Is there something wrong with my AHK files or the database files????

It's been 3 days and I still can't get around this issue! Any help would be appreciated

Does it launch properly from RocketLauncher, outside of HyperSpin?

Post a copy of your HyperSpin log (log.txt in your root HS folder) and I'd be happy to take a look.

That is what is in the hyperlaunch file. Let me know if this is the correct file.

Thanks for the help guys
