Firstly, thank-you for purchasing the Lynx Game Drive!
To get started using your cartridge you need to install the latest firmware to make sure everything is up to date.
Click on the download button below to download the latest version of the firmware for the Lynx Game Drive.
Once downloaded, copy the firmware.upd file onto the root directory of a memory card. This means the file cannot be inside any other directory.
Now you have the firmware update on the memory card, insert the memory card into the Lynx Game Drive memory card slot with the cartridge in the console and turn the console on.
The cartridge will recognise the update is there and will update the cartridge to the latest firmware and continue to boot directly into the game menu.
