So is the Sega CD region locked? I have never herd of the sega cd but it seems like a game i would get. Sometimes you can also change the region codes on. There are no Mega CD games that are region free, right? It's not the Mega CD/Sega CD games that have region lockouts; it's the BIOS.

Okay, I really want to play my import mega CDs on my new portable CDX. I don't mind doing the individual conversions of each game through my computer, but I haven't bveen able to figure out how to do that. I've toiled at it for a while so I thought I'd ask for some help.
I need help with these steps (just about everything, heh): 1. Converting the sega cd.bin format of a game to an.iso file. I used a freeware program called magiciso, but I'm not sure if it did the trick. Opening up the.iso in the command prompt window of scdconv I'm not so great with command prompt yet, and while I do know a little I'm having a lot of trouble putting in the correct syntax to make scdconv happy.
If someone could walk me through the process i would be very grateful, there's also another program (supposively better) called conv.scd. I found it over here: If anyone knows how to use these please help me out.
Thanks, -Segasonicfan. Ok, your.bin can be two different things.
Genesis ROM Dumps (the rom file) are often stored in a format with.bin. I dont want you to confuse that with a CD Image.
A cd Image is basically the whole cd in one file, and can have several extensions such as ISO BIN RAW NRA and etc. If Majic ISO suscessfully creates an ISO from that BIN then it means your bin was a correct CD image. So here is what you do to convert your import. Extract the convscd105.zip into C: scd Copy your ISO into C: scd (rename to something easy to type like sonic.iso) open up start>run and enter in cmd (hit enter) in the console window type cd scd type in convscd (hit enter) enter in your iso name (with.iso extension) follow on screen instructions hey that was my 150th post earlier who wants to share a bubbling bottle of mountain dew with me? Hey thanks for all your help. Thanks to your info I know how ot run the program in command prompt and everything now however, I am having one hellish time making a proper ISO file.
I've tried Ultra ISO, MagicISO, and Alcohol 120%.Alcohol is the only program that will rip the files from CD without giving me an error message (Ultra ISO gives me a dumb error message saying multiple tracks cannot be put on ISO.). Unfortunately Alcohol will only rip the CD into a weird.mdf format.It won't do ISO.
Did you use another version of Alcohol or do you know another program that would work? I really want to play my imports. Now what you need to do is make a cue file. Remember when I told you an ISO is an image of a cd? I was wrong, I should have said it is an image of a track. The first track is the data track and the rest is the audio.
What you need is a cue file, which is a listing of all the tracks in order. You can make cue files by hand but I recommend using a program designed just for this: (freeware) Store the cue file, and all the audio tracks in the same folder, and then you need to open up the cue file in whatever Burner program you use.
