    I'm having issues with two games on GDEMU. They all are TOSEC/TruRip - GDI.
    • Atari Anniversary Edition - freezes at Powered by Windows CE screen
    • Sega Rally 2 - Crashes to Dreamcast menu. I tried both US and (3) JPN releases.
    Is this an issue with GDEMU, CDDA or DMA timings?
    Information is sparse.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Do you use the low noise adapter? Can this be plugged in directly, without modification? I was just thinking about securing the fan with a blob of hot glue, since I don't have a 3D printer.

    If you are not worried about the stock fan you can reuse the wires from it and either solder them to a fan header or directly to the Noctua fan. Just take a 10k resistor across the yellow and red wires on the Noctua fan. If you are in the US my printing service would make the 3d parts for $10 I also have a pre made fan header I sell for $5

    Do the parts you sell work seamlessly without any cutting or gluing? Thanks

    You have a gdemu right? If so there should be no additional modification to the system. The fan bracket that buffalowing made will fit in the place of the original fan. The latch part I made swaps in place of the original one. No gluing is required one screw holds the new fan in place. Just provide thr fan.

    Has there been any updates to GDMenu or GDEmu SD Card Maker, I cannot find any official websites for these programmes.

    As far as i'm aware, this is the only place they are officially hosted, so one would presume they are the latest versions.

    No problem, I don't have that issue with the latest version, How many games are in the SD Card? It sounds like its not using the games list that should be built into the cdi image and instead is just checking each folder on the SD.

    As commented above I think you haven't correctly built/saved the menu and GDMenu is defaulting to scanning through the games folders...

    When that was happening to me, it was because it turned out a few games had generated names with a whole bunch of trailing spaces breaking the character limit. Renaming them to be a bit shorter fixed the loading to be instant.
