For ImgBurn to work you do require the pfctoc.dll in the install folder of ImgBurn, see http://www.epforums.org/showthread.php?81186 for more info
What model version is your dreamcast? going to guess at model (1) should be something like (1) [NTSC|U]
I have a feeling it works fine with Mil-CD's anyway because it's only model (2) USA dreamcasts that have issues anyway dated November 2000 and newer as Sega removed the Mil-CD feature, model (1) and model (0) should work just fine with Mil-CD's and Utopia itself is a Mil-CD, see http://www.epforums.org/showthread.php?54893 for more info
P.S. Utopia is not needed nower days, it was only ever used to boot plain CD's as Mil-CD's can boot directly, the only plain CD rips that are around are very very old rips

Okay, this has been a frustrating day for Dreamcast Burning.
Upon purchasing my dreamcast at an expo, I proceeded to burn a few games, 9 successfully and only needed utopia for Gauntlet Legends.
fast forward a year later. I have moved unpacked and set up my toys, and there are a few titles I want for my dreamcast. The 9 I burned still work fine. but I have no notes or information from that time and how I was able to burn these CDI files to disk.
My first go to attempt was Zorlon's imgburn with the 3 "drivers" (pfctoc) in the root.
the games I burn load straight to music player. they WILL NOT BOOT.
I then tried:
DiscJuggler v6.0
CloneCD 5.3.1.4
BootDreams 106b
I am running windows 7 ultimate 64bit
burner is an LG cd/dvd writer "supermulti"
I have tried 16x burn speed and even 1x speed based on advice from a thread here. in the same thread it was mentioned to ensure overburn is on and default. and in another thread "there is no reason to have overburn on"
It embarasses me to even have to ask as it seems so very simple when I read instructions on here, and the fact that I had successfully accomplished this with little to no effort less than a year ago, wasting only one disc at the time. I have ruined 10 cd-r's today!
Please someone throw me a bone, and I ask that one try not to be condescending as i realize how pathetic my inquiry is.
Please create your own thread
Do not bump old threads
Thread closed due to age.
Create a new thread also list the games with issues and if you got them from us then link them so I can take a look
I personally have just about every english game in a selfbooting Mil-CD format including Gauntlet Legends either made by newer groups or created by me, though most of my rips are for 99min CD-R or just better 80min CD-R rips, I just used what I could to get the best possible rip done, to make sure no game content was missing and without any sort of re-sampling when possible
DiscJuggler is not needed neither CloneCD or even Nero Burning Rom
Boot Dreams is just for making your own selfbooting disc images but there are much better methods though a little complicated for some but end results are much improved over Boot Dreams
