Post by: muttonchop on September 20, 2005, 08:39:07 pm

im assuming that games that have a chd, need a chd to run, am i correct?

the chd is a compressed hard drive file... without it, the game won't be doing much ;)

Even with the CHD files those games might not be doing much.  There are only a few that are playable.   ;D

Quite a few of them are playable, actually.
