Before first using the [[RetroArch]] core for px68k, make sure to go under the directory for BIOS files ("system" by default) and create a new folder called "keropi". Then inside that folder put cgrom.dat and iplrom.dat from [http://www.gradiushomeworld.co.uk/download.php?file=x68_win68k_roms.rar this pack]. If you're using standalone Pro-68k, put those two files under the same directory as the emulator executable.
If you're using MAME's core under RetroArch, you'll need to put those X68000 BIOS files (from emuparadise) under the keropi folder: x68000, x68000 super, x68000 XVI, x68030, x68k_cz6bs1.
You'll need the MS Gothic font installed on your PC as well. Make sure to decompress the games before playing them. The lzh extension means it's a compressed archive format popular in Japan in the nineties, but fortunately, it's handled by any zipping tool worth its salt (like 7-zip).
