Dreamcast reseting with specific games only.

My dreamcast has suddenly started to reset when I load last hope pink bullets and neo xyx. Oddly it works fine with gunlord and shenmue 2, audio cd's also work fine.

So it loads the sega logo and such and then resets on an infinite loop. I think it does not appear to be the reseting hardware problem commonly associated with dreamcasts. Could it be a laser recalibration problem? i only just heard of this issue yesterday and today my dc starts reseting.

Any ideas what could be wrong here?

Interesting. Now I don't like pointing fingers any anyone, but I kind of have to this time. How are NGDev Team's pressed discs build quality actually are?

Well gunlord works fine. Its strange neo xyx and pink bullets were played recently after many months of inactivity.

Absolutely none. I do not have any homebrew post dreamcast games myself.

Not too sure, but it could either be the Dreamcast having trouble loading homebrew stuff or the games themselves.

I might have to try this laser recalibration thing I guess.
