    Default PSX: Actua Golf 3 (E) I/O Error

    Problem: When attempting to convert to a normal .bin file ImgBurn produces an I/O Error, and Daemon Tools is also unable to produce an image file.

    Steps Taken: Extracted contents into a folder. Extracted the .7z file to give me the .ecm.bin file. Used ECM Tools to produce .bin file. Used Monkey Audio to convert the .ape files to .wav files. Manually renamed the .wav extension to .bin. Used the .cue file from "cues and sbis". Mounted successfully with Daemon Tools Pro.

    So far so good, but then when I attempt to produce the new image file I get the above mentioned errors. To be clear, the above steps worked for me with other titles flawlessly so I am assuming that there is something wrong with the file.

    EDIT: I also checked to see if, as mounted, it would run with ePSXe. It produces the following error:

    * Error loading WNASPI32.DLL
    I'm going to go through the process of checking all the .ecm/.ape files I can find and will post the results below.
    (I won't bother checking multiple regions of the same title unless the first version I check fails. Also, this could take me a while.)

    ... but when you extract the .7z file to get the bin.ecm file it is named "Track 01", so after using unecm you have to rename it "Bloody Roar - Hyper Beast Duel (Japan) (En,Ja) (Track 1)"
