There is actually a .cdi to .nrg converter out there so that you can burn DiskJuggler images in Nero. I've had good experiences with it, as in most of what I've converted has worked just fine.

DAMMIT, Sonic Adventure didn't work. Got a lot of studying to do for my exams atm, so I'll give up for a bit and afterwards I'll try with Alcohol 120%, as it seems that has worked for people where DiscJuggler has failed! May be worth noting that I got my games from DCisozone.com. What sources do you guys use for the games? It could just be that I've got a bad image or something. I have a feeling this is gonna take a long time to get running!

Ive tried using discjuggler and alcohol 120% and nero, but they havent worked, Im gonna try the various configuration options for image making in BootDreams next.

I've been using misc. torrent sites, mostly TPB and Mininova so far, but I downloaded a few games with my new Underground Gamer account, I'll try them when I get more CDs. Apparently a lot of DC owners use DiskJuggler, though I've never had any problems with Alcohol 120%.

I have both Alcohol and Discjuggler, and about 20% of the time I'd end up having to use discjuggler to burn .cdi's succesfully

Turns out my dad put a DVD-RAM drive in my computer when he built it. My dad tried doing the exact same thing as I did but on his computer, and it worked fine! Now I have the torture of not actually playing it until after my exams >_> I'll post the guide I followed here http://www.autumnoftheseraphs.com/dcburn/

I've found that I can only burn DC games on my old Lite-on CD burner. Games burnt on my newer DL DVD burner don't work. I've kept that old CD burner in a couple of newer rigs for this purpose.
