Problem with a Game in NullDC

I wanted to start off by saying that I get the same errors as this guy in NullDC, however my DC Bios an Flash are Dumped correctly and are the correct sizes.

I tried to Play Sonic Adventure 2, and heard this was playable in NullDC. However it isn't for me and it freezes on the File Select Screen.

This was working fine in Both Chankast and Demul, but it doesn't in NullDC for some reason. I have Attached a Screenshot below to explain what I'm talking about and show where it is freezing

Thank You if Anyone can Help me resolve my issue

Let me guess, the emulator also asks you to configure the date and time every time you run it, right? Better check the readme.

Great Guess, right on the tee

I'll reread it, I only read only a little bit of the readme earlier

:EDIT: Tried as the Readme Suggested and everything is working fine now.

Thank You

What did the readme suggest?

I have exactly the same problem as above.
I have to set the time and date every time I run any dreamcast emulator.
Sonic Adventure 2 will only work using NullDC, but it freezes on the file select screen, as in the screenshot above.

I have dc_boot.bin and dc_flash.bin. I have downloaded the latest directX update (December 2006) and I have tried every plugin combination imaginable.

Any ideas?
Please can u tell me the obvious thing I havent done?
Thanks for your reply...

From the Readme:

Do this, as the Readme suggested and everything will work fine including Sonic Adventure 2. I did however have to replace my Bios and dc_flash.bin with one I had backed up in another folder on my Hard Drive, but I don't think I really needed to do this
