    the iso type isnt used with dreamcast images. cdi and gdi are what you should get. cdi can be burned to cdr to be played on a real dc. gdi are untoched dc images only for used on emulators. so i think your image is ad, try to find the game in either cdi or gdi

    http://www.emuparadise.me/Sega_Dreamcast_ISOs/1 ISO is a general term most of these should be in cdi format

    NullDC I would try running NullDC on it's own first before trying to run a disc and make sure there are no problems in running the bios

    I will give a bios set that should work

    P.S. it is just the normal NullDC you are running the other one is an arcade emu not a Dreacast emu

    bios set the roms outside the data folder are for Chankast

    lol reminds me as far as I know NullDC reads the bios from the data folder not a bios folder
