Trooper Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 Hi! I was wondering if anyone know where I can find downloadable versions of instruction manuals for things like The 800XL, the 1050, and DOS? Since I've never owned an Atari Diskdrive before I really need some sort of documentation. I'd be grateful for any and all help in this matter. Cheers!

Jetboot Jack Posted July 6, 2003 Share Posted July 6, 2003 This site has lots of great books archived, there is a great DOS book (Inside Atari DOS) that teaches you everything about discs on the 8bit: http://www.atariarchives.org/ Or you could browse the FAQ: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/atari-8-bit/faq/ sTeVE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trooper Posted July 6, 2003 Author Share Posted July 6, 2003 Thanks a lot! Stupid me didn't think of Atariarchives or the FAQ once more. I will try to better myself! I seem to remember there used to be a site with lots of Atari gamemanuals and other manuals, I can't seem to find it anymore though. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

aminerva Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 I assume you mean this site (does not work any longer) http://www.crestviewfl.com/~richard/atari-docs.htm Which I used to always use for Atari 8 Bit game docs. I was last able to access this site about 4 months ago I think. I should have saved more of those docs when I had the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 You can still access most of that site thru the Internet Archives: http://web.archive.org/web/20020207014512/.../atari-docs.htm Some links may not work, but try researching with the exact link instead of clicking the links on the above page, and there may be an older vesion available to view.

Trooper Posted July 7, 2003 Author Share Posted July 7, 2003 Yup, that was it, I guess I's better grab what I can until it disappears alltogether. Thanks for your help, both of you!! Cheers! Troop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
video game addict Posted July 7, 2003 Share Posted July 7, 2003 I believe by making the web archive list this is prevented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
