Emulator Problem: Kega Fusion Sega CD Freezing/Softlocking (Perfect Sync Checked)

I know for a fact that there have been similar posts, however like the title says, I've already tried checking perfect sync option. I have yet to see a thread on here where someone has stated that they still have boot issues afterword, sorry if I'm mistaken. I have tried several bios and it seems like a 50-50 split on successful boots. Sonic CD, Final Fight CD, and Lunar I have no issue. This being said other games like the CD port of Road Rash freeze right after the opening sequence post logos and Rise of the Dragon freezes on the bios screen where it shows Sonic and the Sega logo. Any other possible ideas to help get these games running? Thanks in advance.

:tldr: Sega/Mega CD freezing with perfect sync checked on Road Rash and Rise of the Dragon
