        You don't even need to add Bios for Lynx. Just add roms to the correct folder. Worked for me.

          With everything you've tried, it might be your roms that are problematic. Emulators aren't normally too picky in that regard, but after trying an emulator that needs a bios and one that doesn't with the same results, it would seem that your troubles may lie elsewhere.

            @kris964 beetle-lynx does need a bios.

              Also, you may need to switch the type of ROMs you have. I don't remember which it was now, but I think I had headered ROMs and they didn't work at all so once I switched to unheadered ROMs, they played fine.

              If that's not right, just flip/flop it. I just don't remember if it was headered or unheadered that worked now, just that I had to change it up.

                  Get roms that have the opposite of what you have already whatever that is.

                            I found my roms in a bicycle shop in Cairo. The owner wanted them taken down to Dar es Salaam...
