BobRedthorp Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 I got my hands on a Mega CD, you know the CD-ROM add-on for the megadrive/genisis. I got it with a megadrive already attatched but I don't know how to use the CD-ROM, do I need a Cart to tell it to run the CD Game, anyone got one and can help?

Agozer Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Really, have you tried putting a CD in and turning the power on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobRedthorp Posted April 15, 2004 Author Share Posted April 15, 2004 Well, yeah, that about all I can really do to try it, I dunno, it plays carts but just don't know what else to do?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
random guy Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 (edited) Are you using burned cds? I may be talking out of my arse here, but I assume that the MegaCD needs some kind of modding to be able to play backup/import CDs (I only say this because every other CD console system (except the dreamcast, from what I've heard) needs some kind of modification to play backup/import CDs) Edited April 15, 2004 by random guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobRedthorp Posted April 15, 2004 Author Share Posted April 15, 2004 No, theyre all originals, I just don't get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
random guy Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 No, theyre all originals, I just don't get it hmmm....I'm sorry to say this, but maybe you got ripped off and the mega CD part of the system doesn't work My condolences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanManXZ Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 No, theyre all originals, I just don't get it hmmm....I'm sorry to say this, but maybe you got ripped off and the mega CD part of the system doesn't work My condolences. maybe the cd reader is dirty. Try cleaning the lens. then see if it can plays games. If thaty doesnt work bust inside the system and check if there is any faulty wiring/connections. Well this dosent work I fresh outta ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 hhmm being an old system you will be lucky the laser is still working.anyway it wont hurt cleaning the the lens and see what happens no cart is needed just make sure the cd unit is connected properly.

jbenner Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 btw, SegaCD doesn't need to be modded to play CD-R games. And there are plenty of SegaCD ISO sites on the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
