You must use a system card : I can't recommend system card 3.0 enough.
To listen to music :
1: put you favorite music cd in your primary cd-rom.
2: run Magic Engine.
3: load system card 3.
4: push 'run'.
5: knock yourself out.
Those instructions are based on my belef that you want to listen to music through Magic Engine, and that you have, and know how regular PCE cd's work... _________________ If you translate Pole Position in French with babelfish you get 'Position de Polonais'... I think it's hilarious... from a French point of view.

I notice you mention a "retail Turbo CD". If by any chance you're using a copy, then the burn is bad. Try loading ME, boot the Syscard 3, and then insert and Audio Cd. Make sure you have disabled "Auto insert" in your CPU to prevent any media player from playing the CD. Press run, and if you get the PCE Music CD Player, then the game CDs are the faulty ones. _________________ Proud owner of a Dreamcast, Saturn, Turbo Duo and a registered version of ME since 2002. |
