Grabbing two now to see if I can get it to work. Thanks for the mention of isopuzzle and dvdisaster. More things to try :) Reason I ask is that I recently purchased a huge lot of Origin stuff. Among that are some CD-Rs that my drive couldn't read, for example this Beta version of the never released …

Thanks all, that helps a lot. Especially leileilol‘s advice against Plextor (as my usual goto would have been Plextor). What’s the obligatory preach, though? 😉

I've got some old CD-Rs that no longer read correctly, especially with my crappy USB Blueray/DVD/CD drive. Does anyone have experience with drives that are better for reading old CD-Rs?

Makus sent me the files and I'm baffled, seems to be one of the rare programs that actually need a working share, which is not working with DOSBox (but I didn't have the problems you mentioned). I've sent you the files to get it working using Daum. BUT I suspect it would work with DOSBox-x as well, …

quick moderators' decision: we are keeping this as a reminder for other people that google this or in some way find this -> DO NOT DISABLE/BYPASS A FUSE! (also removed the pictures of removing the fuse)

merged the video thread with this thread. Unless you can provide better data (direct recordings of the same unit before and after modifications with sound setup listed and keeping it the same for each recording) this will continue to be ridiculed. AND because of bypassing the fuse we might have to …

Heya, usually I'm not in the old hardware but I bought a huge lot of things. A lot of games, games memorabilia...but also some hardware. I wasn't going after the hardware but buy all or nothing :) But my problem is that I live in Germany and the stuff is in the US. So if I were living in the US I'd …
