saturn burning help...

			Ok, hey everyone. I'm new... yadda yadaa. Well, I've burned PSX games before and I just recently got a Sega Saturn. I have gone step by step using FireBurner (i.e., loaded up cue sheet, changed all mp3s to wav, etc.) and all I get are coasters. The only exception is that one of the CDs I burned (i.e., Panzer Dragoon) is read as an audio CD.

			I use Nero, and it's always done the trick. Make sure you're buring the games at 8X, or 12X if you're really impatient. Oh yea, this may be a dumb question, but you do have a mod chip installed, right?

		v_omen		Feb 8, 2004
			No, I was just planning to use the swap trick to play the games. I can't find a modchip anywhere, and when I do, they're expensive as crap.

		Gallstaff		Feb 8, 2004
			Um well mod chips are like 20 bucks and they're actually all over the internet... http://www.jandaman.com/Merchant2/merchant...uct_c... there ya go buddy. Just make sure you got 32 pin. I hear doing the bridge a+b method makes these things work though.

		v_omen		Feb 8, 2004
			thanx man, but still before i get it i would like to really use the swap method. The main thing i need to kno how to do is burn the games. So i guess i should try nero? does that support cue sheets?

			Are you sure you are doing the swap correctly?

		Dyne		Feb 9, 2004
			yeah im thinkin what mal is. mebbe all those "coasters" were burned right. the swap was never an easy thing for me the week i tried it.

		racketboy		Feb 9, 2004
			another vote for Jandaman -- great guy. save yourself the frustration. it's well worth the money if you plan on playing your Saturn much

		v_omen		Feb 9, 2004
			well its not about the swap it, the lens doesnt even go to the outer edge to read the code. I dont know whats going on. it jus boots up like an audio cd rather than going to the outer edge and reading the security code

		IBarracudaI		Feb 9, 2004
			are you burning disc at once?

		v_omen		Feb 9, 2004
			yeah it checked the box, im just thinkin that fireburner doesnt work well with this computer because some of the "coasters" ive burned dont have anything on them, i put them back into my comp and it says they're empty. Does anyone here kno how to use nero to burn them?

You burn mixed mode just like the way you do with CDRWin or FireBurner; load the cue sheet and burn. To load the cue sheet in Nero:



1. File --> Burn Image...



2. Change File type to All Files (*.*)



3. Locate and load the cue sheet



Once the cue sheet has been loaded, the rest should be self-explanatory.

			u guys are honeslty amazing thanx.

		Gallstaff		Feb 11, 2004
			Well mal's post was kind of a common-sensical sort of thing, i'm surprised you didn't think of it before

		Alexvrb		Feb 12, 2004
			Well gallstaff, not everyone can have your level of common sense. After all, who else here would think of buying a cheap noname PSU for their new rig? Just kidding, that's the fastest way to learn, right?
