    Exclamation Hello

    So basically, I need a bit of help, as you can see. ok, first off, I have Chankcast already, and Dameon tools. Chankcast loads the dreamcast menu.
    I have versioins 1.0, 2.0 and Alpha (new one) I own a few dreamcast games (the original GD) Is it possible to use the original games or must I alter them to work on the Chankcast? I have read all the facts and guides for Chankcast, and quiet Frankly, I really don't have a clue as to what in the world to do next. All I wanna do is play soulcalibur! I don't know a thing about the CDI images, or ISO. can somebody please explain anything that might help, especially about these images. Keep in mind, I don't exactly know much about these technical computer terms. Thank you, it would be greatly appreciated.PS-I have A Burning Promgram Called Nero Because I read about the faq saying something about needing a burning program....
    C'mon help a girl out.

    Latest Chankast version it's alpha 0.25, get it at here

    You can't play original GD-ROM on your PC, it's a format not compatibly with standard CD/DVD-ROM drives. The only way it's either play mounted (with Daemon Tools) ISO, or burnt ISOs. To get the ISO you need to download/borrow/etc them or extract it by yourself: it's not an easy task if you ask me, you need a DC, to plug it with your PC.
    I've uploaded this guide for you. I'm not taking credit for it btw

    You also need a the DC bios, dc_bios & dc_flash.bin (NTSC-J, NTSC-U, or PAL), and a the Utopia CD loader if the ISOS are not self-bootable. Google to find them

    What is the dc_flash.bin for? I only have dc_bios.

    The regional (NTSC-U/C, NTSC-J, PAL) settings for DC, a flashable BIOS.

    Does it work for you without it?

    Mmm... It works fine without it, but some games don't.

    It's always better to use the full bios as possible, just as the GBA case: It would work better most of the time
