GDEmu clone issues

Post by Xiden »

If you have a clone Gdemu, you likely have a faulty or incorrect crystal on your g1 bus that needs to be replaced. Reference the following tweet for fix. This is partly why I am against chinese knock offs.

Thanks to Citrispsi3000 for finding this issue.

No issues with my clone either. Between that and vga, best thing you can get your Dreamcast.
