Need FreeMCboot? I'll install it on your PS2 Memory Card for free if you cover postage both ways.

I use one of those Ultimate Cheats Collection Xploder demos that came with Dreamcast magazine (the unofficial one) currently but I have a whole pile of them: A full version of Xploder, Action replay DCX, a demo of Action Replay DCX from DC-UK Magazine, and Utopia (rarely ever need it).

I was wondering if someone can help me out with an answer to a question.

I've got a Regulation 7 Japanese Dreamcast and about 10 import games. My USA system died the other day and I now want to just play all my US and Jap games on the Reg 7. Is there any way I can do this? I'd need a boot disc of some kind, right? But which boot disc will boot US games in a jap DC?

Thanks for the help in advance.

Really? I must be burning the Utopia disc incorrectly. Time to fumble around with it some more...
