It's not the format that's important, it's how you burn it that matters. IIRC I burnt all my Saturn games using Alcohol 120%, Disc-at-once, 8-16x speed. You may also need to patch the image to your region, with something like Saturn Region Patcher.

I can't say with 100% certainty but it looks like your specs may be lacking. If this is the case then all I can think of is to make sure that no unneccesary processes are running while NullDC is active. Maybe someone with NullDC experience can jump in here.

Indiana Jones 4 - Not as good as the older ones but still a solid Indy flick. Taken - Liam Neeson, standard revenge movie. Don't know why it's been rated as highly as it has. Still enjoyable enough though. Death Race - Em... more Jason Statham mayhem. Death Toll - One of the worst films I can ever remember seeing. Gangsta, DMX, hoods, beyond woeful acting.. you have to see it for yourself. Head of State - Old comedy with Chris Rock, about the Presidency and his rise to it. Pretty funny.

Playing games from the HDD is ok if you have an Elite or something, but with the old standard 20gig drive it's a bit pointless. I'd much rather see them add more codecs/containers and loosen up the restrictions that they have on those already in place.

stotious Although I have around 35 games, only a few aren't 'backups'. I'd hate to go on for an online frenzy with you folks only to miss out on DLC down the line.

With yourself or by yourself? A seemingly subtle difference, but a world apart in real terms

As long as the roms are in the Surreal/Roms folder they should be ok. You may need to change the extension to .z64 instead of .usa for example. You can also edit the surreal.ini, though it shouldn't be necessary. Sometimes it is necessary to delete the initial save that Surreal creates too which can be deleted via the Game Saves manager in UnleashX.

It is quite a feat indeed. Then the Xbox can dedicate most of its resources towards pure processing power, without having to share any with an OS hanging over it's shoulder.

Wow, an XBLA game that I would actually buy! Looks nice

I much much prefer to use the ground level tools if at all possible. VirtualDubMod has been a mainstay on my PC for years. But there are a hell of a lot of people who use more user-friendly stuff like ConvertXtoDVD and WinAVI. There just isn't any sort of equivalent on Linux. Nor for the likes of DVDLab or DVD Maestro etc, it is lacking somewhat. I was going to mention IM apps too. When I used Linux it was one of the major annoyances for me, being a heavy IM user at the time, now it wouldn't bother me so much. That pretty much sums up Linux for a lot of people who are used to Windows; plenty of software alternatives, but they ultimately pale in comparison.

The Lost Weekend Great old b&w movie about an alcoholic and his struggles over one particular weekend. No doubt very risque subject matter for the time (1945). 8.5/10

An overhaul of the site, new skin, front page etc. It's been vaunted for months but nothing has yet materialised. A one week countdown was started a few weeks ago, but was bumped several times then simply removed.

Every emulator across the entire BAED series will be outdated. You should download the latest versions to ensure maximum compatibility and playability. With the newest versions downloaded, you could then extract the BAED iso with Quix, replace the old emus with the new ones, and then rebuild the iso. Alternatively, quite a few emus have built-in file browsers, so you could ftp those specific emus to the Xbox and play the roms direct from dvd. That way you will at least have some up-to-date emus.

It's likely in xiso format which is why you can see the size of the iso, but not the contents of it. Use Quix to open the iso to see if it is indeed genuine. I don't remember my Xbox ever liking DVD+R discs, even high quality ones, try DVD-R to burn. Burn with DVD Decrypter at 4x and it should be fine.

If he has less than 100 posts then it'll still be disabled.

If you make them register then there is at least a slim chance that they might stick around. I was forced into registering at some site years ago just to download one small file, I ended up sticking around for a few years and made a few hundred posts. If you don't at least require registration, then they will just come along, grab the file and be gone. Really, it only takes a few minutes to register, what have we lost if they don't post at all? Every forum has a ton of inactive members, unless of course the webmaster takes a little time out to prune them from the server. Otherwise, they aren't doing any harm except taking up a few kBs.

I don't know about anything else because I haven't used Linux in a year or so, but the one area which it seriously lags behind Windows is for video/audio editing/manipulation. By that I mean like high-end DVD authoring programs, converting from x format to y format etc. Windows has 100s of these sort of apps, Linux does not.

Yeah, good idea. Then anyone can come and leech from us without even having to make a single post

I got the RRoD last week and it scared me badly, with mine being flashed. I waited half an hour and turned it back on and it worked ok. It is well ventilated, in the shade, nothing within a foot of it all the way around, and I only have it on for maybe an hour or two at a time. Mine has the Falcon board too.

Hopefully Windows 7 will be a big improvement over Vista, though no doubt it will be another RAM hog. Why they are spending $300 million advertising Vista when they could just pump that money into W7 I don't know. What I hated was the packaging of Vista with products that weren't up to the job of running it. A friend of mine bought a Dell laptop last year and was only offered Vista as an OS, and being none the wiser he said ok. Ultimately he ordered a low-end laptop, which is all he wanted, but Vista runs like glue on it. I have seen this so many times with people asking me why their new PC is running so slow, when their old one was perfectly fine with XP. Nine times out of ten it's because they have been lumbered with Vista on a low-end machine.

It plays about 95% in MameOx128. DG is one of those shooters which really needs autofire, which only 128 has afaik. Had just a quick jump into it there, if you turn off the scaling filter and change frameskip to level 5 it runs damn near perfect. When I used to play it I used the PSX version via PCSXbox as it seemed to run better IIRC. Turning it off will just make it run even slower [/OT]

The two boxes were left over from when I used it, doesn't mean anything. The whole point was to see if the web browser would run. Use the 'nommc' version of NullDC. The Dreamcast boot screen may be a bit messed up but does the web browser work? If you can't get that to run then 100 different versions of MvC2 aren't gonna make a difference. I'd take your email address off this for starters. And, I don't think you have a full grasp of things yet - I can't just email you an iso, aside from anything else it's illegal.

I packed my NullDC 1.03 with Web Browser and uploaded it here. Try that to see how it goes. It works just fine on my pc with default settings. Don't touch anything, no settings, no plugins, nothing. Just run the NullDC exe file and select 'Normal Boot'. Then choose the Web Browser cdi file which is in the NullDC folder itself. It should run ok.

VALKYRIES dammit

RE the dash updates. They have been released on other media by Microsoft for those without Live, or leaked in some shape or form. Then they can be downloaded, burnt to disc, and installed, without ever needing to connect to Live.
