I have bought this cable before knowing that there are some which are not able to rip games!
So, tell me if i am able to rip games with this cable, thanks!
I hope i could because i have ripped 6 games with it... But, NOW i can't rip any games...
Explanation: - I start RamBooster and configure it correctly.
- I start Tera Term Pro and configure it correctly.
- I insert the Slave disk and send dreamrip.srec.
- Once load, i still configure Tera Term Pro.
- I insert the game i want to rip and type "ok".
- All the tracks are ripped but it stops at the last one. The cursor is flashing and nothing happens. So, i am not abble to rip a game correctly!
Please! Help me!
Thanks!

it really doesnt seem you have a problem with your cable... try some other games and see what happens...i always swap before i send the .srec file..... try that maybe and do u use the macro or not???

Yes! I am using the macro "dcrip.ttl" in Tera Term Pro. Does it change the means to rip? Moreover, i have tried to rip other games, but i have the same problem (the last track can't be ripped!). So you suggest me to swap before sending the "dreamrip.srec" file... But, could you give me more explanation about this? Thanks!

try using hyper terminal instead... it can work much better sometimes... anyway in tera i always put in the slave, start it up, set the settings, swap the discs, and then send the file, then change the speed and start the macro if you want(but you dont have to) if you dont use the macro and press ok, then you can go to recieve file and type trackxx.iso.gz and get whatever track you want... or use hyper terminal, or the track skip method

OK! Thanks for your hints! I have done what you told me and i t works great!!! But, i have understand another thing; After ripping a game, one has to defrag the Hard Disk, or it will be harder to success to rip! It is IMPORTANT to notice it! ;)
Thanks again!
