Sega CD – Out Of Memory

[mikesq]

I am in need of a little bit of help.

I get an error whenever I try to load Sega CD games.

The error is Out of Memory and then quits back to ES.

Is this a common error for Sega CD games?

It is vexing because I am not sure what is actually wrong.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

are you loading the games from inside of ZIP files?
please let me know as I am currently troubleshooting game issues, include Sega CD!

Which games have thrown this error for you?

[mikesq]

I have the .bin and .cue files in the roms folder.

The two games I tried were Lunar: Silver Star and Lunar: Eternal Blue.

Thanks.

ok, have you overclocked? what is your memory split? are you loading the CUE file or the BIN file?

i am able to get both games running currently

[mikesq]

Ok, so I was overclocked at Medium, but I changed it to High and the games loaded.

Thank you for your assistance.

no problemo, i’m currently running TURBO actually and its very stable for me. I have tried going over this as many people have suggested I try it but I have yet to find a stable OC that is above the recommended limit that comes with the pi.

are you running this on a TV/monitor? could you SSH into the PI and check your temperatures please. i strongly recommend that you get heatsink’d now that you are on a higher OC.
