SOME DISK JUGGLER SOLUTIONS!!!!!!!!!!NEWBIES OR OLDIES
it seem most of you are having the same problems over and over, some of you i have been able to help, while others have not been so lucky.
i'm going to go over the basic things you should do to get disk juggler to work, and i would appreciate anyone else's help that has usefull info. when you are done reading this i beg you to please post a reply at the bottom...say anything, but that way this message will stay on the boards for eveyone to read when they enter. onto the solutions. FIRST: IF YOU ARE TRYING TO BURN A CDI DC IMAGE WITH SOMETHING OTHER THAN DISK JUGGLER 2.X.....YOU'LL HAVE A NICE COASTER TO SET YOUR DRINKS ON....SO MAKE SURE IT IS DJ 2.X SECOND: UPDATE THE ASPI DRIVER AT WWW.ADAPTEK.COM OR USE THE GENERIC DJ DRIVER FOUND AT WWW.DCCOPYWORLD.COM THIRD: MAKE SURE YOUR BURNER SUPPORTS MULTI SESSION WRITING..ONE WAY TO CHECK IS BY TURNING ON CDRWIN, GOTO "RECORD DISK" LOOK AT THE BOTTOM..IF YOU SEE THE "OPEN NEW SESSION" GREYED OUT UNDER "RECORDING OPTIONS"...WELL.....YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK.(YOU CAN BURN GAMES THAT ARE NOT SELF BOOT THOUGH). FOURTH:ONCE YOU HAVE ALL THAT DONE OPEN DJ... BURNING A UNRARED IMAGE: 1 GOTO "FILE", "NEW"" AND CHOOSE "CD IMAGE TO CD RECORDER" 2 HIT THE "SOURCE" BUTTON, FIND YOUR CDI/ISO IMAGE AND HIT "OK" 3 MAKE SURE YOUR BURNER IS IN DESTINATION 4 MOVE THE RECORDING SPEED DOWN TO 4X OR SLOWER...(JUST TO BE SAFE), AND PUT "WRITE" IN THE "ACTION" BOX..OR "TEST AND IF OK WRITE" 5 HIT THE "ADVANCED" TAB...THIS MAY NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO SOME , BUT I HAVE LESS PROBLEMS WHEN I CHOOSE THESE SETTINGS MODE: MODE1 BLOCK: 2336 OR 2368 (MAY VARY ON BURNERS) OFFSET:0 TOC: CD-ROM DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING CHECKED IN THE "MISC" 6 MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT RUNNING OTHER APPS, YOU WANT YOUR HARD DRIVE TO BE ABLE TO SPIT THE INFO THE THE BURNER WITH OUT ANY PROBLEMS. 7 HIT START AND PRAY...... MAKING A BACK-UP OF A DC GAME ON DISK FIRST FOLLOW ALL THE STEPS ABOVE UNTIL YOU GET TO THE "FILE", "NEW", NOW HIT "CD COPY FROM SAME RECODER" ALSO IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK YOU MUST TURN OFF THE "CD AUTO INSERT" ON YOUR COMP. TO CHECK THIS GOTO "START", "SETTINGS", "CONTROL PANEL", "SYSTEM"..HIT THE "DEVICE MANAGER" TAB..GOTO "CD ROM" HIT THE "SETTINGS" TAB MAKE SURE THERE IS NOT A CHECK IN THE "AUTO INSERT NOTIFICATION" BOX. DO THIS FOR YOUR READER AND BURNER. (RESTART YOUR COMP) OK ONCE YOU'RE BACK PUT THE GAME YOU WANT TO COPY IN YOUR BURNER PUT THE RECORDING SPEED DOWN TO 4X AND "WRITE" IN THE "ACTION" SLOT HIT START. DJ WILL START MAKING A TEMP IMAGE OF THE GAME. WHEN IT IS DONE IT WILL KICK OUT THE GAME. PUT A BLANK 80MIN CD IN THE BURNER, CLOSE THE TRAY, LET THE BURNER GET SET...THIS IS IMPORTANY, BECAUSE 80% OF THE TIME IF YOU HIT "OK" RIGHT AFTER YOU CLOSE THE CD TRAY IT WILL FAIL...WHY?..I DON'T KNOW, SO JUST WAIT THE 6 SECONDS OR SO THEN HIT "OK"... IN 20 MINUTES YOU SHOULD HAVE ANOTHER COPY OF THE GAME. A COMMON ERROR MESSAGE IS "BUFFER UNDER RUN" THAT MEANS YOUR HARD DRIVE OR CDROM( IF GOING CD TO CD) IS NOT GETTING INFO TO THE BURNER FAST ENOUGH, SO THE BURNER STOPS FUNCTIONING.....THE MOST COMMON WAY TO HANDLE THIS IS SLOW DOWN YOUR WRITING SPEED, SO THE BURNER ISN'T WRITING THE INFO FASTER THAN IT'S GETTING IT, ALSO MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING ELSE ON YOUR COMP THAT REQUIRES YOUR HARD DRIVE TO WORK (SO CLOSE ALL APPS ) THE SCARIEST PART IS RIGHT AFTER THE FIRST SESSION, IF YOU GET PAST THIS PART TO THE 10% MARK..IT SHOULD BE SMOOTH FROM THERE..UNLESS YOU MESS WITH YOU COMP, HAVE A POWER OUTTAGE, OR YOU KID COMES OVER AND PUSHES THE BUTTONS ON YOUR COMP(I HAVE THAT PROBLEM) HOPE THIS HELPS EVERYON.... GOOD LUCK

ok guys this is what i have noticed...some of the self boot games that use kalistos initial technique seem to be able to be copied fine by most people, however there are 2 other self boot techniques used by release groups that seem to give trouble to you guys..(even me), i use psxcopy to make disk to disk back ups and only certain games come out right...i'll need to look into this a bit more......that's all for now...

I´m new to this board but I can allready see that you´re really trying to help people out Big Papa. Continue with that, you´re doing a great job. However I was wondering if anyone that gets "illegal field" in DJ has manage to get it to work? I have the Matshita 7502 with the firmware v4.17 and I constantly get "illegal field" when there´s a track that is 300 sectors. It has come to this point when I´m planning to buy a new CD-R and give the old one away as a christmas gift to my parents. Anyone know how to get the 7502 to work or can recommend another burner to me?

Ok, first of all, thanks, Big Papa, for taking the time to help everyone out in the forums. It's really appreciated by people like me who are just now getting into this.
Now, down to the problem... I'm having trouble with DiscJuggler and my Memorex CDRW2642... I keep getting those dang buffer under-run errors, even after messing with all the options, disabling all background apps and so forth.... So, I'm wondering if there are any other CDR programs out there that you can make successful DC backups with. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help, all. |

My thing is greyed out too
I was wondering, isn't there anyway to convert those damn CDI into bin/cue? |

thank you everyone who has replied to these posts..
i really appreciate it, im about to post a couple new ones for those of you that can burn the cdi files, but they dont seem to work... and for "crackass"...it wouldn't matter if you can convert the cdi to bin/cue, because you need that "greyed out box" to be functional...sorry but to answer you question...yes you can convert them..use the "cdirip" program...

Can someone name off some games that require the boot disk, since my p.o.s burner won't let me writer multiple sessions, and i won't waste my time downloading self boot games, and come to find out i can't burn them without buying a whole new burner. heh, im frustrated.....anyway can someone name off some 'decent' games that require the boot disk...Thanx....

So, you're basically telling me that I CAN NOT burn if that thing is grey?? Well, I don't understand. I've been able to burn Some games that come in Cuesheet format and some bins. What I basicaly did was load the cueshet and thats it, the game woul burn, so I'm asking, isn't thee a way to convert the CDI into a cuesheet? so my burner would be able to copy it anyway?
