Stuck at flower after clicking "run" on game

The OS is installed no problems. I can access Lakka on my primary PC and add files to the Lakka system. After I scan a folder, the games appear on the home screen, but once I try to run the game the system freezes on the flower screen. Some odd things happen when I try to fix the issue. If I go to the Online Update tab and update the Lakka system, the GUI is ruined and looks like a very basic, almost DOS like, looking GUI. I can run a game once the GUI has been destroyed. I can then, go to Update Assets, and the GUI will be fixed (although it is different from how it was initially), and a game will run. But once I shut down and restart, the GUI is completely destroyed again. Basically, I do not know why games do not run on initial Lakka installation.

Which version of Lakka are you using ? The latest release ? If yes, there is no update yet…

Which system are you trying to launch ? Some of them need bios.
