![]() Tl dr: Laser is older and not reading enough of the disc to play properly, see fixes above. Replace the GD-ROM with either another drive or a GD-EMU.Careful, as this will shorten the life of the GD-ROM if adjusted too far. Adjust GD-ROM potentiometer(POT) to allow it to use more power.I wouldn't clean it with anything other than that unless it's a last resort situation. Clean the GD-ROM lens with canned air.My guess is that, there is a section in the original SOA disc 1, that is harder for the GD-ROM to read than other games and therefore causes the disc to not be read properly. Different sections of these discs may also be easier or harder to read based on how well the parity can rebuild the missing data and other factors like where the data is located on the disc. but if the laser is a little dirty or well used, its going to make more mistakes while reading the disc, but most of the time, this is OK, because the disc includes enough parity bits to allow for a successful read. Reading from an optical disc is far from perfect, so there is always extra information included to correct any errors that happen while reading the disc. I know DVD and CDs have them, so I'm guessing GD-ROM discs do as well.

The Dreamcast either tries to play it like a CD, or it loads the SEGA screen before soft resetting to the home screen. Weeks ago, my loving wife bought me a like-new copy of the game because she knows how much I love it. I assumed I had scratched or damaged the disc somehow, even though no damage is visible. But now, the DC simply doesn't recognize SoA (disc 1) as a Dreamcast game (it *does* recognize disc 2, but I can't play since I don't have a save). Maybe 5 hours in during a combat, and enemy got stuck in his "preparing to attack" animation for several minutes, while the DC struggled and whirred, so I reset. I bought Skies of Arcadia no too long thereafter, played through it, and loved every minute of it.Ī few years ago, I decided to start a new game of Skies of Arcadia.
