Issues burning Nester 2002-03-04? huh?

Post by Vlad Tepes »

I just burned the new Nester, and it's not booting. I converted the .elf bin to the 1st_read.bin and all that good stuff...and went through the all-too-familier process, but when it boots, it starts going into this crazy booting loop...it boots, stops, reboots, stops, boots again...and again and again. I tried reburning the previous release that I had burned, and it worked fine. Has anybody else had this problem? Or am I just dilusional? :? It's very frustrating...I mean, it's been forever since I made my last coaster :evil:

Make sure you run the scramble.bat, or it won't boot.

DCFactory will do it all for you, including the elf2bin part (make sure you download it from the tool section), and update the nester scripts (click Scripts, it's under the util section).

What's funny is I've downloaded and successfuly burned every daily update since the daily updates started, and from the first "daily update" I would read about people essentially doing what I did last night...and when I would read of people doing that, I would think, "Ha ha...what a dumb mistake." Oh well..."judge not least ye be judged yourself" :roll: :)

Boot Disc

Post by Kiley »

I don't want to run NESterDC as Self boot... do I need to run scramble.bat I've never tried NesterDC before.
