Some more system details please. :) Memory, CD specs (speed, IDE/SCSI), OS revision, CD filesystem.

I use IDEFix, which includes a CD32 emulator/booter as part of the distribution.

Unfortunatelly it's not very fast and modern configuration :(
68020,10MB,standard IDE HDD(170 MB), KS 3.0, WB 3.1, CDx8
I've got one CD32 emulator from Vangelis '95 cd-rom installation disk but it not works (i think it's damaged )

You may not need those emulators, just try some tools like NoFastMem and KillAGA, then start the executable from the CDTV CD and give it a go :) May not work for all games though ;)

No problem with the hardware - sounds ideal. :) I only enquired about CD drive speed as believe it or not, too fast can cause problems! :hoo

RetroMan is correct to suggest those tools, but for those games that require a little extra help... try CDBoot, available legally from Amiga Arena (http://www.online-club.de/~ARENA/arenautilities.html).
