Hello there, my first post in the forums.
Today I have received a GameCube game I specifically bought to play on Dolphin emulator (Sonic Adventure 2), unfortunately, I am not able to play it due to not having a compatible DVD Drive. Although, I am open to buying one at a reasonable price and also in hope that it's an external DVD drive. I've been on the forums/google all day trying to figure out a way to resolve my issue but unfortunately I haven't had any luck or found anyone who made a thread/a reply on a thread with a similar problem to mine. Due to my problem with my DVD Drive, I cannot dump my game. I'm only looking for a DVD drive which would work with the emulator or if it is able to read the disc so I can dump it with Rawdump and be able to play it. If necessary please keep in mind that my internet is very slow where I live.
-I don't have a Wii/GameCube
-DVD Drive: TSSTcorpCDDVDW SU-208DB TF01
-Windows 8.1/Intel/Toshiba
-Dolphin 5.0
-I do not have another computer
-I do not want to buy a used/new console (Wii/Gamecube)
---If you need more info please post a reply on the thread asking specifically what you need in order to help me
I have read this thread so please don't link me to it as it hasn't really been much help other then helping me figure out my DVD drive isn't compatible.
So technically, the real question is whether I can have an external DVD drive (or if necessary I can install one) on my Windows 8.1 computer. For example, would this compatible drive work or not? I appreciate any help, thank you.
