    I would keep trying to get null working if I was you, will try a fresh download and tell you what you need to do to get it working

    unless your talking about the bios loading screen that is indeed all triangly????

    I dunno thats just not a great description a screeny of what your talking about would be helpfull

    well the bioses must be in the data folder in the NullDC folder my attachment from before already has those in a data folder

    Naomi is not a dreamcast emu so you require the none Naomi version

    asides from that what errors are you getting??
