Hi! Im D_Light! I love dreamcast! I wanted to play some games so I tried the emulator but there is a problem! Everytime I try to play the games the emulator doesnt recognize the game and it thinks its a music CD! I saw the posible problems.... and it can be only one, this one: 3- You're trying to run a non-selfbootable disk. Either use a tool to make your game selfbootable or use the Utopia boot disk; I tried a tool made by Exoskeletor the recent one! But when I try to uset it... it said that the game its not a dreamcast game or its not the right format! Can anyone help me please?

P.S.- I read all the rules! If im breaking one... tell me please! And forgive me! ^^;

I hope you're not putting retail copies of Dreamcast games in your CD drive with hopes that they will work. You need a CDR or back up image of your games in order to use them with Chankast, since no PC CD/DVD drive can read original retail games.
