Welcome to the scene. You're not useless lol, just take your time to read up and don't be afraid to burn a few coasters. It takes a bit to learn how to do all this Dreamcast homebrew stuff but once you get the hang of its pretty simple.

As others have said, don't use discjuggler. Download and use imgburn

i'm a member of the imgburn fan club..Make sure it has the dc patch. The download on this site works fine. I'm too lazy to see if anybody posted the link so here it is anyway.

I personally prefer DiscJuggler, ImgBurn works for me on my PS1+Saturn

It constantly reboots because its installer is broke for Win10

I believe it was this page I referenced to get Dreamcast burning going again!

My settings thanks to le sire Teamcast. BUT both of my casts demand fast burns, I must to use 24x speed!

Definitely you need Ives PSOv2 CDI as filesort is fixed laser save and no swapping. You can play EP but when reach level 80 ultimate difficulty I would swap to stock for a while lol I went EP when I hit lv115-120 me thinx

How to fix it so it does work on windows 10

https://sizious.com/2018/07/01/installi ... indows-10/ which i think you know about

Or just extract dj package and run the cdj.exe without having to install DJ.

which prolly what you have up there..

or you could install a vm and do that as well.. or even dual boot your pc lol

Yeah pretty strange you can use img burn to show disk info in tools or the right panel if it thinks it's a dvd it cant burn a cdi to it.. ether reinstal img burn make sure you have dreamcast cdi version not the one on the website
