[Im new to DC Emulating please somebody help]

As the title states, im very new to dc emulating.., i had a dreamcast for 2 years, i absoluty loved it, i didnt touch my ps2 once in that 2 years, then my dreamcast just died :'( , newayz, i still have my PSO burnt cd, its the game i played and have missed even since.

 

I downloaded Chankast, unzipped it to a folder.

 

i havent got the dc_bios.bin, coz i cannot find it, no matter where i look..., if sum1 could tell me / send me in the right direction, ill be ever so happy....

 

as beeing new u have alot of problems :S

 

once i got the bios files - i allrdy got flash.bin, where do i put them ? :S:S

 

i forgot to ask, can u accually use Burnt cd's from ur real computer drive, or do u HAVE to use mounted iso images ?

 

if maybe sum1 could put msn down so they could explain sum things more easily id appreciate it very much

 

Thanks in advance for any help that will be given

THEY can't/won't help you.

I can.

 

You need the files "dc_bios.bin" + "dc_flash.bin"

 

Q Where can I download them?

A My website: (made only for this purpose)

 

http://www.google.com

 

Once you have extraced the files - just place them in the chankast folder with the other files and voila.

 

Why am I the only person to have answered this properly?

That means you don't have the Dreamcast BIOS (or don't have it in the proper location). And don't even think of asking us where to find it.

The ONLY point in this dreamcast forum as far as im concerned is to solve problems like this one.

 

Now the no.1 problem anyone will have downloading chankast is the fact that the bios is missing and very hard to find elsewhere.

 

If you cannot help resolve this issue + you know how to you are just a flocking waste of space and need not reply.

 

When i eventually get this bios from someone more useful than yourself i will personally post the URL in this forum and i will if necessary host it myself.

 

flock you very much

[dc_bios.bin]

The mannual states

 

"you'll need to download the BIOS for the dreamcast as well. As that one is under copyright by Sega, we can't provide you with a link here, but Google is your friend when you're looking for it "

 

Only google provides only links to forums like this one, where the question is still unanswered.

 

Now what i require is a web url where i can directly download the file dc_bios.bin

 

Is that so flocking difficult??

 

I find the make a donation quite laughable considering an emulator without a bios is faulty/inoperable/incomplete.

 

If i find an address where this file can be downloaded i would immediately post it just to put other newbies out of their misery, regardless of any copyright laws.
