    Default Boot Gamecube Backups With Action Replay

    Install GCOS 1.5 and autoboot (no menu) with Action Replay

    You'll need:

    • A Gamecube.
    • An official Nintendo Memory Card, 251 or 59.
    • A way to run dol files on your Gamecube, like PSO1&2+BBA, or Max Drive Pro
    • Action Replay for Gamecube


    1) ** This step will erase everything on your memory card **
    Insert your Official Nintendo Memory card into Slot B.
    Run "1 format.dol", press A to format it.

    2) Reset your Gamecube and go into the GC bios save manager,
    it should say you need to format, so format it.

    3) Run "2 install-ARcodes.dol", press X to write the file,
    and press R to select slot B.

    4) Run "3 install-level2.dol", press X to write the file,
    and press R to select slot B.

    5) Run "4 install-gcos15.dol", press X to write the file,
    and press R to select slot B.

    6) Put in Action Replay, reset, go to Start Game, open the lid,
    close the lid, and GCOS 1.5 should boot up. Enjoy!

    Additional notes:

    I used Max Drive Pro to run the dol files.
    You need an official MC, 3rd party wont work or are temperamental.
    I had to reboot in-between each step.
    You might need to adjust the laser on some Cubes to read backups.
    This doesn't work on the Wii, at least not for me.

    Objective:

    This allows you to boot Gamecube backups using an action replay and official memory card.
