Yes that is the SIO sound via POKEY, and it can be dissabled. or turn down the volume on speakers. Most people enjoy the loading noises, it helps visualize the loading sequence. Some disk or diskette problems can be diagnosed by listening to the sounds.

I have been working at getting the MyIDE rom removed. I should have used the two OS setup with switch, but didn't. Also I should have installed a chip holder. I'm looking forward to the new SDXbeta rom that has this code imbedded in the CAR: directory.

Hi larry, with which software language. I use COLD=USR(58487). with basic. ASM would be similiar/E477

Depends what you want to put on it. perl and Tasm will create an atr to program the cart. (i.e.)with the proper perl commands. On the AtariMax Forums there are some pre made atr's posted for 1mb carts and 8mb carts. maxflash.pl on the command line will give the parameters for the different options. Here is one that I got on the forums. democart1 (maxflash image).atr Demo games cart.

YES! I want one also. Make up a prepay thread.

One of each SDX and MyDOS with MakeATR from previous post.

I also only have internal MyIDE so I could test with my SDX cartridge. Is this driver going to be imbedded in the Cartridge code like Kyle's or is it a MyIDE.sys file.

This is my crash file. I first got this after installing version 17. I then did the /portable and got the program to open..

at the command prompt type ALTIRRA /PORTABLE and this will bypass the registry problem.. This makes an .ini file in the altirra directory..

Very worthy macro. Next to saveall.mac this is most usable. Cuts down on a lot of global replace of CR/LFs. Thank You!

I think both options would be good. I have a internal MyIDE machine that is usually keep stored away. But the one I use for daily stuff would love to have a Cartridge. Anything with larger buffers.

Atadim 3.05 drag and drop atr on to atadim link or send to>atadim. Search forum it has been posted in the last month-year. This post.. http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/151943-copying-from-h-to-d/page__view__findpost__p__1860136

K-DOS, which looks like a decent command line DOS, is supposed to persist with BASIC and the Assembler Editor, allowing you to use DOS commands directly from these environments. Does anyone have an image of the original disk? I haven't been able to find one. The only version I have found is on a boot disk that lets you select from multiple DOS systems, and it doesn't function with BASIC enabled when loading K-DOS from said disk. Thanks, Paul Is this it?

Since upgrading to Windows 7. Altirra for 800/5200. Steem is good for .ST and .MSA disk files. Stella is good with Windows 7. If I still had an older 120 - 500 mz PC I would use TosBox for the ST emulator. I feel it is better for Language and App's.

No high scores for me, but I did get to the 6th level, but not passed it yet. Is there a list of level codes for this game anywhere to be found. Any hints on how to keep the tail shorter. My joystick keeps going one step beyond my entended turn point.

There are seveal types of basic helper's. This is the one I use to use a lot. EXTbasic.zip Text file instructions included.

Do you have any version of the Tape recorder 410, 1010, etc...?

Thanks Larry, I usually make the path string 19 character just enough not to generate an error when reading filenames and capturing the free sectors line also. 32 characters makes more sense now that I look at it. Just been a lot of years using single density 90k disks. It is all changing now that I have a SIO2SD drive able to hold 16M ATR's. I have been reworking some of my basic files to work within a multi-folder atr.

Great job.. Just one small edit of lw.sys so it will work MyDOS folders. I just changed the Path to D: instead of D1: Downlaoded and transferred to MyDOS and SDX ATR's for SIO2SD. Ideal

I am just beginning to wonder if folder name lenghts (i.e.) ACTIVISI.ON1 as a game directory, or should I use ACTI1 to keep the name length under 8 characters. Several of my olders app's I made in basic and compiled with Datasoft basic compiler had to be re-written. What is the optimal folder name lenght? I have tried A- one character. I have tried AB- two character, but I find that a 4 character folder lenght works best with my programs.

I really worked on getting MyIDE set up with SDX (hacked the custom OS to reinstate missing vectors, etc), but when I finally got my SIO2SD running at Pokey divisor 3 with the stock Sparta SIO driver and standard XL OS the other day and realized the read speed was nearly as quick as the HDD interface, I unplugged MyIDE... This is when I quit using MyIDE also, after getting an SIO2SD and realizing that it's speed was nearly as quick as MyIDE.

I remember that utility, but since I eventually got Turbobasic I was able to quit using that utility. (i.e.) Turbobasic has them built in and also is a faster basic. dos25tbatr.zip

The magazine implies it is in regular atari basic Did you get it to run? Yes I got it to run with BasicXL. With Atari Basic hit the break key and list lines 1240,1250 and also line 1410. parts of these lines are corrupt with AtariBasic, but not with BasicXL. I don't have the magazine so I don't know how to run or what I have to input to get an understandable response.

The only thing I noticed was the option to have the size of file be 3 digit or 4 digit. Option 'O' and enter for setup. There probably more, but this is all I have noticed.

Save target as...........works for me.
