What's new
I used UniCD-CPS3_for_standard_SH2_V4.iso
That doesn make sense. The error that you mention is 100% typical for this problem. If your cart was bad, you wouldn't even be able to write a game or see the menu.

Can you please double check and download the ISO again?

It always shown Re-write game when I turn off and on again
 
Ohhh then one of your simms holding the code, those are SIMM1 or SIMM2, one of them or both are broken.
 
Yep that is one of the sh2 swaps I did many years ago. Haven't swapped an sh2 in at least 6 years.
 
Ok so if I want the Zulu2040, I need the board itself, and the ribbon cable, that's it, nothing else? since I am on the website and it has options here.
 
Got my ZuluSCSI yesterday. The install is incredibly easy.

These were my steps:
  • Use ImgBurn to create a .iso of my CPS3 Multi disc
  • Plug SD card into my card reader
  • Make sure the SD card was formatted correctly
  • Drag my CPS Multi disc iso into the folder of the SD card (card connected via a SD reader on my PC via USB)
  • Rename the disc image by adding CD1 to the rest of the file name (in my case CD1CAP-33S-1.iso)
  • Plug SD card into the ZuluSCSI
  • Unplug my CD drive from the CPS3
  • Plug the 50pin cable into the ZuluSCSI
  • Enjoy
I'll report back if anything changes, but so far so good.
Sir,l followed your instructions and was successful, thank you!
 
Ordered a ZuluSCSI anyone got amazon link to SD Card that would work well with it?

Thank you.
 
I've also gotten a ZuluSCSI but am having troubles getting the CPS3 board to recognize any ISO I have on there. I've attached all the info that might be useful. Any pointers on where to go would be much appreciated!

I'm a bot confused. Zuluacsi and scsi2ad are two completely different products. Why are you showing scsi2sd setup utility pics?
 
I set up a zuluscsi for another member and it turned out to be really simple.

-Format sd card to fat32.
-download preferred iso and rename to CD1.iso
-place iso on root of sd card (not in folder)
-replace cd drive with zuluscsi.

Booted and worked first try.

For some reason the scsi2sd utility can read from the device while the zuluSCSI couldn't. Either way, I used it to show the settings that were on the board.

Renamed the ISO that was on the root of the SD. Booted up the board with the Zulu and got this:
(If I press Shot 1 like the Japanese message says, it attempts to read but stops instantly.)

I can't tell. Does your Zulu have term power enabled? Or are you powering it externally?

It was powered through the SCSI bus, so I wasn't sure.
I did get my hands on a BlueSCSI and got my setup working first try, so there's that I guess.
