    My PAL cube plays NTSC flawless, so I assume the NTSC cube also plays PAL games.

    Don't be so stressed please...

    I think you need to buy an Action Replay but I am not sure about that.

    Ok - I have installed the latest version of the MaxDrive Pro software (got via the link a couple of pages back).

    The software on the disk didn't let me drag and drop for some reason.

    I had dragged the .dol file onto the Pro software and the Cube side now says "Image Database". I was not asked if I wanted to "convert this to a memcard file" as per the first post.

    Is this correct or have I done something wrong ??

    Just try again. Format is first and drag the dol file to it and make sure not to drop it into the folder thats says "Image Database". It took me a few tries to get it on and get it recognised by the gamecube. But it works perfect since then. After the first succesful try I copied over the dol file to a different memory card and now everything is working great.

    rsloot: got it working now thanks. It is not immediately obvious that you have to drop on the "image database" rather than just anywhere in the Cube side of the window.

    My cube reads the MaxPro disc fine ... got the preparing memory card screen which takes quite a while ... and then the GCOS file appears to also be read without a problem.

    All I need now is for my mini DVD-Rs (not Ritek ones) to turn up and I will hopefully be sorted :)

    welcome skull_kid :)

    1. Max drive pro works perfectly and if it doesnt, you need to adjust your POT.
    2. There is no need for a newer GCos, 1.5 is working good.

    Help !!!

    I am now getting a "Hardware read error - Please reinsert the MaxDrive memory card" error when turning on my gamecube.

    I have formatted the card via the PC software and re-added the GCOS BIOS but keep getting the same error.

    When I take the MaxDrive GC disc out and reboot, and go to the memory options, the Cube claims the card isn't formatted ??

    I then tried formatting the card via the cube, but then the PC software said it was full ??!!?? I formatted via the PC and added the BIOS again ... but still the Cube can't read the card :(

    So, I managed to read the BIOS off the card ONCE (last night) but never again :( I have heard about unstable memory cards but that just takes the f**king piss !!! Excuse my french ;)

    Any ideas on what to do ??

    >> AdamBrunt: use the mini dvd for pc !

    Eh ???

    The mini-DVD for PC is only used on the PC, surely.

    You always uses the mini-DVD for Gamecube in the Cube ??
