    Yes, unfortunatley so. That is why I bought the DC-X.
    Recently, I did the Region-Changer mod on my DC and it works just fine :)

    I'm thinking I should just pay $100 for JP DC and be done with it. Give this one back to myfriend and get a US one for US games.....too much of a headache to get a working bootdisc when DC-X is unavailable.

    If you have minimal soldering skills you can easily region-mod, or perhaps someone here is nice enough to make us an ISO of DC-X ? :icon_bigg

    I found a torrent of it in TPB but it has no seeders

    I have NO soldering skills.

    and bummer DC-X may be my only hope.

    There's alot of price gouging going on. I found 1 Japanese DC on Ebay with like $55 shipping. Othersites have rare ones like the Hello Kitty and the Sakura Dreamcast but they're $200-300 I e-mailed Estarland asking if they could sell me their Karaoke Dreamcast sans Karaoke no answer yet.

    It's burnable with the demo of DiscJuggler; the origional disc was PAL. Never tried it on a NTSC one. But its worth the try.

    Ill try it in a few hours when I get home.

    btw you can use an app called cdi2nrg or cdi2nero to convert the image
    I could never get Discjuggler to burn properly so I always used this app whenever I got a CDI file
