edit the ssf ini and make sure you put the name of the bios into the bios line..

ie.. bios = 101.bin

ssftribute.emuunlim.com is pretty recourseful

the saturn bios should be renamed "bios.rom" i think.. just check the page ;p

its undergoing some pretty good updating so most of the content should be fairly accurate with the new SSF Alpha 0.6 along with the old [but good] Giri Giri Project 0.6a.. as well as the upcoming Satourne ST-V/Saturn emu

your best bet is to stick with your saturn since the emu's are still slow and lack sound [although i havent tested the new SSF]

Ok.. download the latest SSF [SSF alpha 006] from here.

extract that to a folder.. say C:/flow/ssf

rename your bios to "boot.rom" and put it in your ssf folder as well

If your using 2k/xp, try one of two things..

Download Adaptecs ASPI 4.70 drivers from here

Install those, reboot, and pop in your saturn game cd and run SSF.exe

if it refuses to run the game saying "There is no CD drive which can be used."

then what I did, was go to my C:\Program Files\ahead\Nero folder, copy Nero's WNASPI32.dll from that folder, and copied it into my SSF folder and it run

if your on 98se/ME then you shouldnt have to worry about the CD-rom stuff
