Is there a way in Gens 10a to enter the bios ? I know that in PicoDrive, you just have to select the bios when loading a rom. But is there a way to do it on Gens ?

The other meaning of "enter". To go into. You could try making a blank .iso file and opening it as a SegaCD image.

The genesis did not have a real BIOS. The first model had no built-in ROM at all. Later models added a built-in ROM that simply displays "Produced by or under license from Sega Enterprises Ltd." There is an option in gens to specify a Built in ROM for genesis games, Options->Bios/Misc Files->"Configure Genesis Bios File"->Genesis But, I don't know why you'd use it. There's literally nothing useful in the Genesis Bios ROM.

After loading an ISO, at the "Press Start to Continue" screen, hit "A" "B" or "C" instead. This should take you to the bios screen.
