    OK, so here's the deal. I dowloaded power stone 2 in .cdi format, and used cdi2nero to convert it to nero. Then I had nero burn the game onto a disc. When i put the game into my dreamcast, it didn't boot, so I know it's not self booting, so i put in my boot disc (the one with the reindeer), and that loads up fine. So i open the lid and take out the boot disc like im supposed to, and put in the power stone 2 disc, and close the lid. The disc doesn't load, and when i open my dreamcast lid back up, the disc isn't even spinning. please help.

    thanks in advance

    has foxpaws contributed anything on topic on any of his replies. good job flip showed him the door.

    edit- it looks like that link i pasted previously doesn't actually help!. so i'd say back to my first suggestion - there's something wrong with the file
