i'm just wondering if there was an app to decrease load times or if there is an app that actually does anything to a commercial dreamcast games instead of the utopia boot disk which loads the game.

umm, no warez, but you can pad your disc. With a dummy file. I dunno a "legal" place to get a dummy-file maker, but you should search for one. I think they work with homebrew games too.

It says that the dreamcast uses 5 ohm resistors, but it says to replace them with 10 ohm resistors, i think you can still use 3rd party controllers and still play for a very long time, i've been playin my dreamcast with unofficial controllers for about everyday for a year and a half till the controller ports died, but you can just buy resistors from radio shack (5 resistors for $1 U.S dollar) and just replace the dead ones

Oh yeah, try overclocking the dc. Check the hardware forum here.

Whats up with the above two posts?

Perhaps Chankast can be of service.

using chankast in no way aides in that sort of thing. especially since it cant read GD-ROMs.

And until Chankast can outperfrom the DC console in every possible way, it's just not worth it.
