Hi, does anybody know why my dreamcast has started to boot into memory manager instead of running the disc? I use it with an Action Replay cart, one day it was ok, next day it started doing this! It boots to MM when using original and backup discs. When I go into MM the cursor is on 'Clear'. The time and date are correct, so it's not the flat battery syndrome. I would be grateful for any help.
Thanks
Tony
SO SORRY!! It's a SEGA SATURN!
Easy you didn't burn the cd-r correclty use disk juggler at 2x speed duh
1 not many Burners burn at 2x now, none of mine do 10x is the slowest my burners can burn at and still give me perfect burnsQuote:

This has nothing to do with burning if the same issue is happening with Retail games
The time is kept as long as it is not powered down for long periods of time even if the battery is no longer holding a charge so it may still be a battery issue
Make sure to backup saves if you have a cart that can do that then try booting with no battery in at all then with it back in again or better yet with a replacement cell
If you think there is an issue with the Action Replay cart try without it plugged in with a retail game if there is a difference then try and clean the contacts of the AR cart with rubbing alcohol or something like that (I have used nail varnish remover to clean contacts in the past and that worked great)
Edit it is also worth boot testing with no pad inserted as there is a shortcut key combo to go directly to the Memory Manager (though I forget the key combo or even why I found out in the first place)
