Disc not suitable for system?

[NeoNero]

What does it mean when the saturn says 'Disc not suitable for system' on the CD player screen? I just burned Burning rangers and this is what appeared, is it because im using a UK saturn and the file is not a pal version or does it mean its a bad burn?

Thanxs for your help.

"Disc not suitable for this system" means you don't have a valid Saturn game inside your Saturn, meaning you probably have a bad burn since your Saturn is not detecting it as a Saturn game. Solution: re-burn and if problem persists, find a different copy of the ISO, else forget this game and move on to a different game.

"Game disc not suitable for this system" means you do have valid Saturn game inside your Saturn, but the country/region code does not match that of your Saturn. Solution: patch the ISO to the correct country/region code with the Saturn Country Code Changer (a.k.a. SatConv) found in the Misc. section and burn again. If you don't know the correct country/region code, take a guess until you get it right (CD-R's are cheap).

But if you've got a cart you don't have to remember to change the country code.

Oh yeah, they have some other nifty features, but it's 'country code forgetfulness protection™' that's most important to me.
