    You don't need a modchip to boot backups since softmods (software modification) work just fine if that's the route you decide on.

    GCOS can be downloaded from modthatcube and tehskeen.

    Does anyone know if the new GCOS 1.5 fixes the audio problems 1.4 had?
    Also, does GCOS still have really slow loading times?
    And are there any other problems that would be useful to know about?
    Thanks!

    i remember reading that you're not suppose to have the gc and usb port in use at same time or something like that.. can someone clarify...


    when and when do we not have the gc ...




    Can someone tell me the specific files that need to be carried over onto the mem card. On the GCos 1.5 zip file I have, the files listed are:

    *Folder* GCoS 1.5 AR Builder ~Do I even need this stuff in the folder?
    -- Readme.txt
    -- GCoS 1.5 (tmbincmod Flash)bios
    -- GCoS 1.5 (PSO).dol
    -- GCoS 1.5 (Qoob Pro Internal Flash).dol
    -- GCoS 1.5 (Viper DVD).dol
    -- GCoS 1.5 (Qoob Main Flash).GCB
    -- GCoS 1.5 (ViperGC Flash).VGC

    I don't have any of those mod chips installed but I do have *or will have* a Max Drive Pro.


    Thanks guys =)

    I am wondering if any of you can help me, I have the max drive pro, i

    have gotten GCOS 1.4 to work, I burned backups on 8cm Sony DVD-R's,

    1.4gb disks, when I load the game thru the bios on my GC, it always

    recognizes the region as JPN and wont load after that, once out of 20

    tries it recognized it as USA but when the game loaded it messed up, I

    am wondering what media you burned your games on or maybe my backups are

    corrupt, any ideas would be appreciated, thank you

    Ritek A Grade/G05 or even Ridata (not as good). I tried Sony media and had exactly the same issues. With Riteks EVERYTHING works. Remember every laser on gamecubes are different. Some people can use crap media like tdk and get away with it. For me Ritek is cheaper anyway.

    Only one way to find out. For burning remember to just rename to .iso, open in Nero (better to use Nero) and make sure to tick the 'Finalise' check box. If you STILL get DREs you may need to adjust the potential of your laser to a lower setting. Dont ask me how it works but it does make a definite differance. Better to test the disks first though.
