i have found this bios and i belive this can work without cd rom maybe this is the key for the iso loader to work without original bios for booting real iso games

thanks

Any DreamShell bioses can work without GD-ROM and only one (dreamshell_loader_with.bios) can boot retail games.
In your archive is my bios (the first), but hacked by Chinese guys for loading another binaries
This BIOS is not able to run the retail games. It can do only my last bios dreamshell_loader_with.bios and this very hard to hack

ok but when i try ro boot my dreamcast with gd-rom removed the whole gd-rom not the disk the console hangs at black screen and says executing and not booting dreamshell from sd.
And with your bios when booting with this bios dreamshell_loader_with.bios all the sd isos i have tryied are rebooting the console,
thanks again.
I think you have done a great job so far but can you fix this bug?

You need to select high memory loader and bootstrap 1 method in ISO Loader app params. And first try run GDI dump converted to ISO, then maybe try compress to CSO.
