ok then:

1. You don't need any special media (noteably GD-ROM discs) like some sites seem to advirtise. Most people seem to prefer verbitam, but I use TDK Metallic.

2. Email me with some decent sites if you could (check my profile).

3. Some games are self-bootable which means you just put them in you DC and play them. Others are Non-Bootable and need a special Boot-Disk which has been released by UTOPIA. You can download this at www.dccopyworld.com or check Big Papa's post for his i-drive account. To use the Boot-Disk, all you do is put the Boot-disk in your DC, wait for it to load, and then put in your backup. To burn downloaded games, you'll need diskjuggler 2.0. If I were you, I check Big Papa's message here:

4. Now I think I'm done....
