I find that launching certain games seems to be hit or miss as far as the BIOS is concerned, even though I think I have the right files. Is there a method that confirms you have the correct BIOS prior to launching a title?

In RetroArch you can go to core settings I believe and check the bios files. It'll give a checkmark if you have it and give the MD5 hash
