Before you can begin, you will need the following: your PC must have a network card, you will also need a router, and a Dreamcast broadband adapter (not the dial up one that comes with the system). That is for one method, otherwise you'll need a coder's cable to connect your Dreamcast to your PC. Then you'll need some special software to make the magic happen. I won't go into the details, but this will give you an idea of what a task ripping original Dreamcast games can be. Essentially, your Dreamcast must read the data from the original game and send that data to your pc, either by the coder's cable, or through your network over the router from your Dreamcast to your PC.
