How many times have we heard this *SHIT* before.... Always an ignorant newbie (no offense intended - "ignorant"=no knowledge).
Look at one of your original discs - not the nice silkscreened label, but the actual surface that the laser reads....
Notice that odd band about a half centimeter after the data track starts? That's a guard band. The only data a standard CDR/CDRW drive will read is just inside that band.
Any idea where the actual game programs are??? Yup, outside that band!
Bottom line: YOU CANNOT USE A STANDARD CDR/CDRW TO RIP AN ORIGINAL DREAMCAST GD-ROM GAME DISC! IT REQUIRES YOU CONNECT YOUR DREAMCAST TO YOUR PC VIA EITHER SERIAL OR BROADBAND CONNECTION - AND THEN THERE'S A LOT OF HACKING OF THE DATA ONCE YOU GET IT RIPPED!!! NOT RECOMMENDED FOR THE NOVICE/NEWBIE!
