Problem with 1050 Drive - Boot Error
dafivehole replied to shadowdoggie's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
I ran this program and I can hear my 1050 spin but the computer just beeps every three seconds. Wait, now the following line appears: 8.80453922RPM What does it mean? Thanks, Roger -
You rock. I will call him today. Thank you, Roger

This keyboard had a problem where the 7 key would continually act like it was being pressed. The only way to stop it was to actually press the 7 key. I fixed it by replacing the keyboard. This piece is in great shape and the 800xl it came out of was virtually unused. Looking to get $5 plus shipping for it... I'm sure that it can be easily repaired. Please ask if you have any questions. Thank you

Just got it and installed it... no issues and my 800xl works perfectly now! What a great experience with Best Electronics. Thanks, Roger

Sure. Our goodwill stores here in Colorado (and Texas) don't carry computers. Thank you

Good question... wasn't windows just a shell for DOS? Roger

I just ordered one... super nice guy on the phone. Thank you, Roger

I posted this in the Marketplace but got no response. Does anyone have a clean, issue-free keyboard for an 800XL? I can't unstick the 7 key on mine. Thanks, Roger

Anyone have one that they don't need/want? Thanks

Sierra PC Game Collection - Big Boxes
dafivehole replied to Metal Jesus's topic in Classic Computing Discussion
I loved those Sierra games. I have the Kings Quest games in my collection but I'm still looking for the Black Cauldron. Roger -
Looking for a problem free (functionally) 800xl or a clean replacement keyboard for my 800XL. Thanks, Roger

Some random reflection of the "old times..."
dafivehole replied to 82-T/A's topic in Classic Computing Discussion
I used to work for Best Buy and it always saddened me to see so many of the old machines being "thrown out" (recycled). I can't tell you how many 5150's and other assorted vintage gems I would see pass through on their way to the recycling burial grounds. Roger -
That makes sense... it sucks for me though. Too bad they didn't make the plastic cover that goes over just the keyboard, like I had for my 800XL back in the day. Roger

We're these ever made (mass produced)? I've been looking for a while and I can't seem to find one... even on eBay :-( Thanks, Roger
-
Is this any different than a normal 2600? Thanks, Roger

Bonkers is fun, Bonkers is nice, Bonkers is never the same game twice!

Preferably with the original mouse and keyboard. Let me know what you have. Thanks, Roger
-
Do you mean "copies" ? I guess those would work too... Roger
-
Just need the original disks for installation. Thanks, Roger
-
Sadly, no

The HD is gone... I need another Win98 CD and boot disk to reload. Thanks

Anyone?
