i dont know whats wrong with playin burned games on my dc. i got it like 5 month ago and original games work fine but burned games r pissin me off. i burn them and all but after an hour of play or so the game pauses, freezes or quits to the memory card screen. i tried all differrent types of cdr media and now i'm using Imation 74 min, so is it over heating or what? the 1st game i tried with the imation cds was dead or alive 2 and it just froze after 1 hour of gameplay. plz help

Have you added a dummy file to your dc copied game?

could it be that my dc overheats? or the dummies suck?

maybe your burner sucks. older cdr burners seem to have trouble with the self booting games. also try different media. i never use crappy media, especially that cmc magnetics crap.

imation cdr's are made by cmc magnetics. i never use imation cdr's.

if 74 min. or 80 min. it should not matter, except for most self booting games require 80 min cdr's.

i just got test drive le mans the other day and it is on a 74 min. cdr and it works fine. i copied it to a 80 min. cdr and it works fine.

use quality cdr's.

if its not the cds then what is it :((
i'm desperate, all burned games freeze after an hour or so of gameplay, my only guess is that the dc overheats and thats y it freezes, i dont think its my cdr thats messin the games cause they're playin for 1 hour or more perfectly (sometimes though) and i dont think its the media cause i've tried several, i also dont think its the dc cause original games work perfectly. so plz guys tell me what to do :(
