yup still not loading games *grr*

[exitreality]

Ok, first off a big thanks to the guys who made this, I cant wait for it to decide to work on my machine.

The emulator starts up just fine, pops up the set date and time screen, I hit ok and it goes to the CD player screen. Exit that and go to the main menu and select "play" and it says insert game disc. This is all it will ever do. Im using official DC games, not rips dumps or burnt copies. Ive tried MvsC2 and Sonic Adventure both of which are supposed to work just fine. I noticed this problem comming up before on the forums but none of the solutions posted there worked. Ive tried all versions of Chankast, tried many different versions of dc_flash.bin (eps, jap, pal & ntsc plus the version from chankast 1.0 as suggested somewhere) I tried both my cdwriter drive and my DVD drive (no difference, still the same problem). So im at a loss for now short of just waiting for a new version of the emulator.

for reference here are my system specs

P4 3.0ghz
1gig DDR400
Plextor CD writer
generic DVD rom of some sort
ATI 9800 pro w/ catalyst 4.2 drivers
WinXP pro
DirextX 9.0b (I think thats the newest, I know I have the newest though)

any help would be cool

If you are trying to run the actual DC GDroms, that's your problem right there. PC Drives by and large can't read them prooperly. This isn't the emulators fault.

You can use a coders cable/with broadband adaptor to rip the games yourself, search google for the details

well crap

I figured I had a cool and legitimate head start by actually owning the games (good thing I didnt buy them just for this emulator). Oh well Ill have to stick with the dreamcast till I find dumps of them somewhere or make my own.

i also own a DC and many GDROMS, so I had to get copies (that can be considered as a personal copy)... and all games still does not work is you have a w2k system...
Can't wait to have this fixed.

Anyway Thx to the emu authors for the good job.
