    I hope someone can help me, I downloaded DBZ Budakai 2 the other day and notice that the file size was smaller than average. I used fstfix.exe on it and the size increase to the right one, but when I play the game it freezes at certain points e.g. when ever you should receive a new capsule. I burnt it several times on TDK 8x full size and get the same results, is there any way to solve this problem or is the iso bad. I hope there is a way cause I really like the game and I can find it anywhere else on the net.

    Thanks in advance!

    1.425.760kB it should be... if it's not you DO have a garbage removed ISO! But I also heard many complaints about fstfix.
    Have had this prob with Mario Kart. Whatever i did with the original undersized ISO, could not play it with my VIPER. But when I stream the ISO it works. Strange not???
    My suggestion is: download another rlz... =)

    OK so your saying that some unsize files will work when I use fstfix on them, and even if the file can stream it doesnt mean that when I burn the image it will play. What about using gcfix is it the same as fstfix? I guess I will have to find another DBZB2 iso file.

    Thanks!!

    well I stream it but it doesnt work too well when I resize it that new image file doesnt work and the original file works until the game reaches a loading screen then it just freezes with a loud buzzing sound. Im trying to find another iso file on the web.

    Well I found an iso of DBZB2 thats even smaller than the first one I had. When I used fstfix on it, it worked like a charm, so I guess the first file was just a bad one. Thanks for the help folks!
