    • my baby
has anyone successfully gotten this combo to work?  all of my CD images that worked perfectly under XP and mounted with an older version of DT no longer seem to work.  they mount as an audio cd with the version of DT that is win 7 64 compatible.  i can get mala to mount the image and magic engine to start up but pushing run says there is a disc error.

i love my turbo cd, can anyone help?

Have you tried Alcohol 52%?

Since the last update of DT some of my game images have been very glitchy.  I tried compatibility mode too.

I'm running w7 x64
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

Telling Mala to just run the CD command right? I assume the emulator picks up from there?

Sounds like an issue I was having with ootake before I realized if I was mounting an image with pre commands I didn't need mala to boot something rom specific.

correct, just the CD command.  it's that DL isnt mounting the discs correctly.  even outside mala, magic engine isn't reading DL mounted discs.  But...

ark - BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!  Alcohol did it perfectly, thank you for the suggestion.  Now i just need to figure out command line for a52.

Dtlite has a few variations in syntax depending on the type of virtual drive.  If I had to guess I'd say that's the issue you were having.

What was your precommand in case someone else was having same issue? Assuming something like :

cmd.exe /S /C "C:\magicengine\dtlite.exe -mount dt, 0, "%path%\%rom%.%ext%""

close, i had:

C:\magicengine\dtlite.exe -mount 0, "%path%\%rom%.%ext%"

Might give the dt syntax a go or Google command line dtlite. Of course if you were going to do that why not just search for the alcohol commands.
