Mega Drive Emulator Dreamcast GD-R Won’t boot with System Disc 2?

[dyer60]

Hi all, I recently picked this GD-R up form an ex Akklaim employee, appears to be a Mega Drive emulator. I am aware there are a few different versions of this so am keen to try it out, however for some reason it won’t boot using the System Disc 2, I have tried different region Dreamcasts, pads and keyboards attached etc. The disc does have some marks but doesn’t show any signs of rot.

Any ideas?

I have run into GD-Rs that would not boot on my retail (with SD2) but would work on a Dev kit, but when ripped it would work on both. So the easiest way to see if all content is there, dump the contents. If you have a BBA laying around or a SD-adapter you'll have it dumped within 30-minutes.

Thanks @Wombat, the SD-adapter was something I was toying with (no BBA adapter sadly). Think I’ll pull the trigger on one and try a dump.

Will keep the thread updated.
