Glad you can get a couple hours of play without issue. Maybe you can get keyboard duster at the store. That might just be the trick to get all that crap out of the drive.

I have problems with mine also but the console doesn't freeze. I get a disc error. Always did it with mk8. I got a can of compressed air and blew out the drive a little bit. Seems to work better but still get the error every once in awhile.

Thanks everyone for the help. Can't wait to get started.

Thanks for the reply. That looks like a great setup. Will 8gb of ram be OK for awhile? I really don't wanna stick more money in this thing for a couple years.

Hello everyone. Been a console gamer for many many years but I wanna get into pc gaming. Found a article online with a system I wanna build. Please let me know your thoughts on this build and anything to change. I am also looking at a Asus monitor that is 4k but I'm not sure if this set up will be powerful enough. Games I like playing include rise of the tomb raider and fallout 4. I also wanna check out just cause 3. Thanks.

My favorite game on the dreamcast would have to be Tokyo extreme racing. I think the graphics look great even today. The break lights would blur when turning and crashing. Was pretty mind blowing back then. Haha.
