is your game slow with an emulator or is it normal speed cause on my pc an emulator is real slow

[CalcProgrammer1]

It runs normal speed on the GameCube, if SNES emulators run slowly on your PC you either have a really old PC or a lot of other apps (possibly viruses too) that are making your computer run slow. N64 emulators are where it starts to get harder on your PC, though most modern PC's will have no problem with N64 (my little netbook can play a lot of N64 games but not all and some lag).

do you need XenoGC chip for this?

[CalcProgrammer1]

No, this is an unmodified GameCube.

SERIOUS, I have to watch you downloading the 7-zip program? Why didn't you also film how you brushed your teeth in the morning?

@startup97 When modding Wii that is the absolute perfect SD card, but I have never used Gamecube Homebrew so I cannot answer accurately. I would assume yes though.

Would a Sandisk 2 GB SD Card Class 2 work on the SD Media Launcher?

[buzzdown69]

All i get when I start the gamecube is the insert memmory card screen, and my SD card is inserted? its almost like its froze or something

@excellenceisme

Yes, I contacted codejunkies and they gave me a new CD, now everything works fine!

[excellenceisme]

@shincoleone are u talking about datel cd???

[excellenceisme]

@shincoleone I can zip all the files I have in SD card and send u if that helps you... please let me know...

[shincoleone]

@excellenceisme

Well the SD Card and the reader aint a big deal, I have a Reader and also an old SD Card (32mb lol)

but just like I said, the problem still exists. The CD is not recognized by the GameCube neither it is on my Computer and for some Reason, I have to format my SD Card, whenever I put it into the Launcher and try to launch it

[excellenceisme]

@shincoleone @shincoleone I also did not get SD card... but i did get SD card reader that I lost myself... so i purchased one card reader from dollar stores... it charged me hardly one dollar... u may also get in ebay at very cheap... also I purchased SD card from walmart for 6 dollars... purchase simple SD card.. NOT SDHC or something... I did this mistake too..u may get card reader in some laptops already built in...

[shincoleone]

Hey, I ordered a SD Media launcher on codejunkies. I just got the same package like you, but my pack was missing the SD Card and the Card reader. I only got the Media Launcher and the CD

Whenever I put it into my gamecube, it doesnt recognize the Media Launcher as a Medium and the CD aint recognized either.

Can you help me out on that one? Am I missing something or some files to put on the SD Card?
