Chancast Help.....

[The Endless]

I recently acquired Chancast and I already have issues with the software. To put it simply it won't play my games. I put the BIOS file where it supposed to go and also I run the the disc using Daemon Tools. When it boots I see the Dreamcast opening, then it asks me to set up the time and date. When I finish doing that I hit enter and it starts up again asking me for the time and date. Someone help me out with this. What am I doing wrong???

Men... Did you configure the drive unit where is the Chankast image? 'cause if you haven't done that, the emulator always starts the BIOS...
To do that you have to enter on OPTION/CONFIGURE DRIVE and then select the Virtual Unit.
You can use Alcohol 120% to mount the images, it's like DEAMON TOOLS, but it worked with almost all the Dreamcast Images.
Once you correctly configure the drive, the game will automatically start... IF IT'S AUTO-BOOT (or SELF-BOOT)... If the game isn't of this type you always will see the BIOS menu. In that kind of case, you need the UTOPIA BOOTDISK 1.2 (Look for it on Google). Games like ZOMBIE REVENGE and SONIC ADVENTURE 2 (J) aren't Self Boot...
