| Problem | Solution | | :--- | :--- | | | You have an unpatched ISO. Find the "No Dongle Crack" (search for Gameshark 5.0 No Dongle.bin ). | | Codes don't take effect | Ensure you entered a "Master Code" first for that game. Check that the region of the code matches your game ISO (NTSC-U vs PAL). | | Disc swap fails in emulator | In DuckStation, eject disc, then change ISO, then insert disc. Timing matters. Wait 2 seconds. | | Save Game Corruption | Never save your game while a cheat is active, especially "Infinite Items" codes. Turn off cheats before using a save point. | | ISO size is wrong | A proper rip is ~200MB (Mode 2/2352 bytes). If it's 10MB, it's a stripped "trainer" and likely broken. |
