Please help with new Dreamcast

Hello; I just bought a new Dremcast. It was the 2K1 Sports Pack bundle (I checked that all DC versions work on the dcemulation.org site before I bought it).

The console works just fine...... but when I borrowed a friend's Master System (SMEG) CD it would not work. He let me borrow the SMEG disc and the Utopia boot disc. It was burned with one CD with the plain files download and all the roms on one CD, and the Utopia Boot Disc as the other CD to boot it.

It works fine on his Dreamcast, but not on my Dreamcast. When I put the first (utopia) disc in it says "please insert game CD" and seems to think that it is a music CD no matter what.

Can someone please help me. I want to play Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine!!

Thanks!
Ulala.

might be a low quality cd...sometimes these don't work with all dcs...check the compatibility list again too...maybe you found a new one...that would suck....

not all dreamcasts can read cd-r's and i (think) the sports pack Dc is one of them, check the cd-r compaibitly page on this site

Check the CD-R compatibility page - the model number and manufacture date is what matters, not the packaging. There are Sports Pack DC's that do and Sports Pack DC's that do not work with the CD-R booting procedure.
