  1. Checked it too with my PAL 800 and Incognito. The menu pops up, but it immediately starts flickering and beeping. I can´t choose anything. Doesn´t matter, if SIDE hardware is enabled or not and is the same in Colleen and XL/XE mode.
  2. Ah ok, that is not that interesting for me. I have a MAC/65 cartridge (not original, but it works) here, and soon that one: http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/209842-oss-5in1-super-proper-cartridge/ Both features are not very important for me, but it´s good to know that they are there. Thanks for the information.
  3. Really? Why? I mean: What need is there for a MyIDE II when you have the Incognito Board installed? I like the MyIDE II because it is very handy for use with all my not modified XLs and XEs (there are quite a few here), but when there already is something like Incognito, why use MyIDE II?
  4. It´s really not too hard and you even don´t need to cut the plastics or something. 6 soldering points and on chip replaced, really easy. My A800 nearly is in daily use since the Incognito is installed.
  5. I gave my second device to ProWizard as he had none. So if there will be a second run I´m in with one, too. I always love to have a second device to show around and let others get hands on at meetings (which we luckily have lots of here in Germany). Funny enough we are collecting pre-orders but no one announced to produce it. But this device is absolutely worth trying it.
  6. Do you mean the Public Relations guy Florian? He just kind of destroyed (shortened) an SM124 to implement a TFT, that's somewhat different. Find his mod there: http://www.akk.org/~...MC08/xmc08.html
  7. Ahh, ok. That means, you are writing a flasher, so that I can easily put SDX 4.46 onto my Incognito? That would be great. As all my other SDX devices are running SDX 4.46 now I would like to have it on the A800 too, as it now has become my standard Atari.
  8. I´ll take back everything and announce the opposite: After updating to APT and reinstalling the card, it works like a charm. It was my fault that I was thinking I´ve already had updated this. Slowly there are too many devices and cards... No. But as there is no SDX especially for Incognito I just have that voice in mind saying "Incognito technically is like Ultimate, use that one", but I can´t find the corresponding thread. All other devices I have now run SDX 4.46, but I can´t manage to update the incognito yet.
  9. While trying to update to SDX 4.46 I've just realized that I can´t boot ATRs too. In no configuration. And I can´t update to SDX 4.46, always get an error when 4*64k shall be deleted.
  10. 5V are easily brought to the corresponding pin of the PBI with a small wire, no need to go to the Joyport. I have a spare IDE + 2.0, only need one. If you still need one, you can get that one from me.
  11. Yes, it is. But you can also say "collective order". English languages is full of pictures that sound strange to Germans. And of course we can order an Omnibus running from Berlin via Wolfsburg and Hannover to the JHV, that would be the real Omnibus order then.
  12. Strange thing: I opened a VPN connection to my office and suddenly it worked. When I close the VPN connection, I can´t open www.abbuc.de. In my office there is the same Internet-Provide as in my flat. Strange.
  13. I have the same problem and we are working on it. Sven informed cas, let´s hope he isn´t travelling around the world again. It only affects some people, don´t know why. You can do a trace and check where you end up. I come to "gw-ms-vt.st-oneline.de", then connection ends. The server is definitely working and it does not affect a single provider. As the admins know about it and started working: use this chance and go outside as long as the sun is shining.
  14. I am just happy to have learned that there's nothing wrong with my Installation.

    There´s no hint where you live, and AA is full of Europeans. But those PSUs are actually easy to built. Sleeπ (who does them for the ABBUC) buys standard PSUs with the right specifications, cuts the plug and adds the correct plug for the Atari, which is quite easy to get, as it is a DIN standard plug. Shouldn´t be too hard to do in the US.

    http://www.abbuc.de/shopabbuc/index.php Scroll down to the bottom. 7 Euro for a much smarter power supply. I only use this and have stored the originals PSUs deep in my cellar.
  17. Never played Bonzoid before. In round 12 that motherfecker stole me a plot of land. Grmpf.
  18. The image you linked to does not work very well on my machines. The store is missing letters and if I catch the Wampus, it crashes (see pictures). Nonetheless I am trying it again, avoiding to accidentially catch the Wampus... (Yes, I have other other copies, but when playing HSC, I only use what YOU provide. )
  19. Ok, so can I claim the copyright for the wording "TurboPokey"?
  20. As every program that I´ve tested so far seems to run fine, I don´t really worry at all. Maybe there is a bug in the OS-ROM of the Incognito that causes this error? For the hardware: tfhh checked the computer in Elmshorn with his SALT-cartridge and it was finde. So I just checked all connections and re-did the cable fixing. Everything looks fine and all lines are stable and connected. I wonder if there is anybody where the Self-test works correctly with Incognito?
  21. Here are some pictures from my installation. Currently I can´t load cartridges that use bankswitching (e.g. Xenophobe, Ultimate Utility Cartridge etc.) and there is a strange thing with the self-test in Standard XL-mode, watch the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TwHaNwwlPvM Anyway, the computer is working fine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ToK-3RSmpRQ What´s that? Just a bug in the Incognito OS? Or some strange hardware error? I tested another Pokey: same effect. Connections are fine. But as long as it works...
  22. When it leaves Poland, there seems to be no more tracking. After I got that message it took nearly two weeks to be delivered to Germany. If I go by car I am at the Polish border in about 2 hours...
