| | They don't have a bootdreams equivalent for Mac? Bootdreams is what creates the proper image file that you can later use on your iso burning software. |

Beats of Rage is provided in a correct, tested, ready-to-burn format. If it doesn't work, the problem must lie with Toast which may not fully support the cd image. |

| | Thanks, It must be a setting on toast t 8
It cant be that it does not support the file, surely |

The Actual os is EASY on a mac. And more reliable, I can have as many windows as i like open at any one time and programes running.

| | Perhaps you can convert to another format and burn with another cd burning tool? I'd offer to burn for you, but unless you live in England, it would cost a ton on postage. |

| | I am in the same boat as the OP, but I eventually gave up. The reason for this is the dreamcast likes it's CDs to be burnt TAO (Track At Once) rather than (Disk at Once) which I believe is what Toast tries doing, ALSO you should always burn as slow as possible, even a speed as low as 8x can cause errors. Basically, there are no Mac-compatible burning software which support the more advanced features (such a joke) such as TAO burning.
What I ended up doing was installing Windows XP using bootcamp (I don't recommenced this, it's a royal pain) and burning the ISO using Alcohol 120% (SUPER MEGA HIGHLY recommenced, btw) I am now however trying to find a mac version of BOR, because my Dreamcast died a few weeks ago 
Peace,

I was thinking about this but my only intel mac i have is in my studio and i dont really want to corrupt it with partitioning the drive and that, It sounds like a major pain in the a$$ |

| | It depends how long you can wait for. I'm rushed off my feet with my final term of university, so I'd need to get near a shop that sells jiffy bags and stamps. Also my dreamcast is at my parents so I can't really test the disc. I can still give it a go though, just not in the next few days |
