TUTORIAL: How to play backups w/o mod chip, only Max Drive Pro Memcard

Great topic. Lucky I didn't immediately jump and buy the Max Drive Pro. I used the Action Replay mentioned a couple of pages ago and it works great.

 

Hey, just a thought, if this works for the GameCube, any thoughts that this exact same process will work on the Nintendo Wii when it is released? I would imagine it's a possibility, since it plays the GameCube games, and has the GameCube memory card slots (as of now). Any thoughts?

 

You gotta be joking, right? Nobody has a slightest clue if this would work on a Wii. Besides, get a mod chip, this method sucks.

 

? this method works fine dude. its for people who dont want to have to mod their gamecube. although i do have a mod chip, this was a great way to start out.

 

Where can I buy those Ritek Ridata g04's for a cheap price? I'm settled in the Netherlands and when I but them from Meritline --> http://www.meritline.com/ritek-mini-dvd-r-media-4x.html I pay over $60 dollaz shipping costs :s

 

Geez, I'm sorry for asking. I know that nobody has any idea how the Wii will work, but seeing as though it contains the GameCube hardware, there could be a chance. I was just wondering if anybody else had thought about the possibility. Christ.

 

Defintely not the same hardware. The Wii will have the Hollywood graphics chip. This chip has been under developement for 5 yrs, and ATI is still working on it. Thats why Nintendo had rigged up Gamecubes at E3 this year. This also means the graphics we saw will be alot better than the demos they showed.

ok, so i have a dell inspiron 6000, and has a sony dvd+-RW DW-D56A drive... is it just my media (office depot min dvds and memorex) or is it my drive u think? Everytime is loads (i see the game and it usually shows the nintendo logo, and then goes on to say that there is an error, what do you guys think? thanks!

 

oh my gosh people, it wasnt even gamecube hardware, it was the actually wii, they are still doing work on it, i know a guy who went to e3 and set up the wii booth.

he has a blog with pics of the entire e3.

 

So I got everything in the mail today. I can boot up gcos just fine, but I got an error trying to load disc. I figured I just burned it wrong. I tried to load up my imported game, and it hangs on the "setting up 06 drive" screen. I can boot up my imported game just fine with freeloader, so why does it not work with gcos? Any help would be appreciated.

 

I just bought a gamecube a month ago with the intention to mod it. I was just wondering since my gamecube is the newest version (super smash bros. bundle/ platinum edition) would that make it likely I'd have problems with the laser/pot issues.

I really don't want to open my cube!

 

i have maxdrive pro, gamecube, and gcos working but the games i burned using nero dont work. only one game worked and that was Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 all other games such mario power tenis dont work. can someone tell me how to make them work. i get a read disk error. i used nero 7 to burn all the games. i used maxell mini dvd-r. i get error messege saying media wasnt recognized. i was reading the tutorial and it said something about size of iso is then than 1.35 gb you have to use Wiped GCM Fixer. how do you use Wiped GCM Fixer.
thanks in advance

 

when i load gcos and select boot disk if i put naruto clash of ninja it says media want recognized but when i load gcos and put Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 it is recognized and then select start process agian and then put naruto clash of ninja it works fine. i have tired the gcos 1.4 boot method but it doesnt work.why is that? someone please help.

 

all you need to do is fix your pot settings.

 

how do i do that

 

OK i have read the whole thread and ive been trying to get the MDP to work

and so far, unsuccessful

I have everything im supose to have to make this work and i do not want to open my game cube up and change the ohm settings.

Well first of all im nto even sure if im buring the disks right. i use the image burn and ive tried different settings and different iso files and all of them get disk errors. Im not sure about the "finalize button" becasue it never asks me. Can someone help me one on one

IM a noob when it comes to computers

 

I think I am all set. I figured out why my import would not play, I was selecting back up instead of original dvd. I tweaked my laser today. I am using the X1K setting for Ohms. The first time after I tweaked it, it said no disc when I tried to load up the md pro disc. So I rechecked it adjusted it and now it works and plays my back ups fine. I think I might of turned it the wrong way the first time. Is that even possible?

 

ok i finally decided to change my laser ohm setting and its at around 200 right now and only 2 out of 8 games work.....
I tried chaing the burn speed and tweaking the laser more but nothing seems to work the sad thing is the games play for like 3min and then randomly stop.


ANY ideas?

 

I think I read somewhere that if the games work for a short period upon boot that you should raise the ohms of your laser. Try raising it and see if that helps.

 

Has anyone tried a multi-games disc with a max drive pro running the GCOS 1.5 ? I plan to burn a donkey konga compilation disk and I'd like to know if anybody already did the same thing with ALL the games working. I just don't want to waste my great Ritek disks. Thank you !
