They work fine on the Gens emulator (of course, I had to place the bios files on that emulator), but there seems to be no way to place Sega CD bios files on BizHawk. Initially, I had assumed that they were already in the emulator, but apparently, they are not (since BizHawk does not recognize the ISO files, while on Gens, they are recognized). If they are not, then how do I place them in BizHawk? In any case, the Sega CD ISOs will not work on BizHawk, while they work on Gens.

I do not see a cue file anywhere to load on any of the games.

You shouldn't even be using iso files, much less loading them directly like that. The correct combo is .bin / .cue, and you load the .cue. The .bin file is the combination of the data files with the music files, and the .cue is the file that tells the emulator in what order it needs to play the files. Either rip your games correctly, or get them from a better source. The bios can be placed in Cofig -> Path

You might fall into a problem where the cue doesnt exist with the bin. In that case, find a cue maker for sega.

Or you know. Do the more logical thing and go to redump and grab the cuesheet there. Since you know, redump only provides cues and never the game. Meaning you won't get in trouble mentioning them.

Sorry... I had no idea, since they worked in that fashion on the other emulator anyway, but now, I know and it all works. In the meantime, BizHawk has been amazing in other ways. Completely awesome.
