I used to play this in the 70's Combat is a great port. Thank you

Yep, time to play kick the can

The wiMODEM 232 w/OLED is just one of these eBay Auction -- Item Number: 362406257089 with a level shifter and uses the Zimodem firmware that incorporates RTS/CTS flow control. I Plan on making one for RS-232 and one that uses the SIO port...

Cool, my new eyes are working good. Can't wait to build one

I guess so... looking at the source reveals it's using $D701 as the control register to switch banks, learn something new everyday 10 *=$B86 11 LDX #0 12 *=$B88 13 CMP #7 ;DRIVE #7 14 .BYTE $B0,$47 16 *=$105C 17 LDA #$64 ;$64=100 18 *=$105E 19 CPY #7 ;DRIVE #7 20 BCS $1076 22 *=$12DE 23 JSR $12ED ;LOAD Y FROM ADR.$21= GET DRIVE # 24 *=$12ED 25 LDY $21 ; LOAD Y FROM ADR.$21= GET DRIVE # 26 CPY #8 ; SEE IF DRIVE #8 28 BCC *+4 ; IF NOT JMP TAY 30 ADC #5 32 TAY 34 LDA $185B,Y ; GET BANK # FRON TABLE IN 185B 36 JMP $1846 ; DO BANK SWITCH 38 RTS ; RETURN ? 40 *=$148D 41 CMP #6 42 *=$14C4 43 LDA #$70 44 JSR $1846 46 *=$183A 47 .BYTE "MEM.SAV ERR",$9B 48 *=$1846 49 STA $44 ;STORE BANK # 50 LDA $D0 ;$D0=0 1st TIME 52 AND #$00 54 ORA $44 ;ORA W/# IN $44=BANK # 56 STA $D701 ;CHNG BANK # 58 STA $D0 ;NEW BANK # 60 RTS 62 *=$185B 63 .BYTE $01,$02,$03,$04 64 .BYTE $05,$06,$07,$08 66 .BYTE $09,$0A,$0B,$0C ; TABLE OF BANKS = 12 FOR 800+ 68 *=$70A 69 .BYTE $C3 70 *=$77F 71 CPX #7 ;DRIVE #7 72 BCC $78A ;78A OR 7BA ? So it's possible to have a conflict with other devices

I don't think the RamDisk mod would affect the $D5xx control register area that might cause that condition. Ram Disks just use PORTB for the bank selection. What version(s) of the IDE+2 do you have?

Maybe you can make Atari8bitcarts an offer on his Incognito board and buy a 800 eBay Auction -- Item Number: 123547607353

Files on these ATR's should help out what to modify... 800+RamDisk01A.ATR 800+RamDisk01B.ATR Dos 2.5 already modified for 800 Plus 256k mod...

LOL, I mean from the cable to the Atari SIO Port on the SDrive Max side

Disconnect the 5 volt line from the Atari SIO Port and all is well...

You can get these for $150 normally, I'd never buy from this seller because he lies about what he sells and always over prices what he sells... Case in point: He bought a RM-1000 radio modem for a best offer of $100 after he saw that I paid $70 for one last year. He relisted it for $275 eBay Auction -- Item Number: 273516190864 and stated: So I asked him what kind of "handshake" did he get, his response was: This Radio Modem doesn't have those signals on any of the connectors, plus it doesn't work that way... I reported it as a fraudulent listing He revised the description now: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 283285988065

Yeah, some programs use their own message que and conflict with others when inappropriately handled. I don't use the "Broadcast to All" window handle when setting the font and other dialog messages. I'll add a custom SendMessage() routine to try to catch and resolve...

Yep, I remember Beetles' project... I'm still gathering plastics to use to make a case, but it would be much cooler to have a production made case

That would be cool too

A 1450XLD Case for my working 1450XL

I've bought 3 Spectre GCR's over the past 7 years for under $40 each and those came with the books, cable and floppies. Last 2 on ebay sold for $88 and $273... ( not looking to sell any yet )

Cool I'm on the far west side in Santee, so around 5-8 miles...

Thanks for all of the kind sentiments guys, it's really appreciated :thumbsup: Tuesday I met one of the eye surgeons and talked about the procedure and recovery and today I met two of the RN's that will be assisting. Everything is all ready and set for next Thursday :thumbsup: I can't wait to have 20/20 vision again

From the File Menu, -> Open Image... An ARC loads just as if it was an ATR It's pretty slick...

Okay, will have a look at it in a couple of weeks. Eye surgery starts in 11 days... Right now I can't read shit unless I'm right up on the monitor.

Or, you can load them in Altirra and save it as an ATR

Yep, you need to create an ATR to copy the ATX to...

I only wish that I had known sooner than 2010 that Best Electronics had 1450XL mobo's for sale. Thankfully mimo came to the rescue and sold me his. It wasn't until 2010 that I brought out my 800 and 810's from storage after a 15 year sleep... I'm sure he regrets selling it as there hasn't been anymore showing up on ebay or in the wild since then...

Thanks for the report, will look into it
