You want to start lynx in its own console, instead of re-using the
internal console that Emacs uses for (start-process).  Probably this
should do it:

  (start-process
    "lynx" nil
    "cmdproxy.exe" "/c"
    "start \"\" \"C:\\Program Files\\lynx283jdev14\\lynx.exe\"")

Or with a lot less overhead:

  (w32-shell-execute nil "C:/Program Files/lynx283jdev14/lynx.exe")
