Description

after long time, i wanted to play it again, and with the same config, which worked 1 or 2 years ago, the game dont boot again. cd startup delayed insert is on. i know, years ago there was a problem with that game, but it was fixed with the startup delayed inssert optionn. i am using default cdtv 1mb as model in the setup. but when i raise the chip ram manualy from 1mb to 1.5mb or 2mb, then the games boots without problem. 1 or 2 years ago, i know, that was not necesarry, did someting changed in the last few years?

Research direction

No source files or tests are named. First reproduce Xenon 2 Megablast with the default CDTV 1 MB configuration and delayed CD startup insertion enabled, then compare it with 1.5 MB and 2 MB chip RAM; done means identifying why the default configuration now produces a black screen and adding a verified fix or regression test.
