I remember in the 1st photo in PDF because I went inside that lobby. I love it's architecture because of Atari Logo ! One for the building, itself and one for enter the parking lots from main road.

Oh ... Okay, I will check it out.

hello reifsnyderb, I tried to run your lovely self-test ROM on XL or 1200XL OS on Altirra. But it seems failed to boot up. It fall back original self-test mode. Yes, I clicked all the varies of OS types and still failed.

Hello MrFish, I visited there once. Even non-Atari employee allowed me visit inside their former Atari building. I was on 2nd floor and took an photo outside. Nice lady that allowed me to do so ! No, I never visited the actually Atari Corporation during it was live ! Sad for me. I wish I would love to visited during it's heyday time ! I do NOT remember what is the name of business when I was visited their former Atari building that you took the SAME photo above.

YES, ERROR 167 ! That what caught my attention first place !

Hello to all , My apologies. I realized , it is on SOFTWARE, it is nothing do with altirra emulator. I forget to unlocked the files for .COM. Then deleted those unwanted files .com. Yes, it comes with star symbol that means , it is locked files under DOS 2.5 disk image. So I have to UNLOCK that files with star symbol , FIRST.

Hello MrFish, I never seen this "Options" before. So now I know . What a pain .... I understand Altirra has been continuing update a new patch version. So the software has been changed .. you know what I mean . Wow .... I never seen the mess before. Altirra WAS FORCED back to VRW by automatic ! When I was tried to deleted unwanted file.com and altirra was denied access ! Yes, I did SET-UP R/W even in options ! BUT IT JUST blew the tires off ! I think it would be MUCH easier if I deleted unwanted files.com on the REAL HARDWARE for good !

Hello jindroush, Why Altirra always default when I launch the program. It said "VRWSafe" as DEFAULT ! So I HAVE TO MANUAL change to "R/W" all the time ! Thank you so MUCH ! FOR BIG TIP ! Now , it is working ! Whew !

Hello to you all, I need an major help. How can I saved BASIC source code into BASIC Mode under DOS 2.5. Every time, I pasted basic program into BASIC mode. And I did saved "SAVE"D:TEST.BAS". And I quit Altirra software and come back to check disk image DOS 2.5 and guess what , it does not there "TEST.BAS". Nothing. I know I seen when I quit the Altirra software and it stated, it will not saved disk image if I quit. "Any unsaved work in emulation memory will be lost. Are you sure ? ". So how can I overcome this issue on Altirra ??

I still not understand how to recognized by your latest release for 1400XL and 1450XLD ROM ? Test 7 released, still failed to noticed there are actually rom's files with 1400XL and 1450XLD. Configure system then click firmware then show me the balloon lists. And still NOT showing any 1400XL or 1400XLD , just normal all release Atari 8 bits. Help me ... Yes, I placed lovely 1400XL.bin and 1450XLD.bin under ROM folder. Still not showing and click on that rom (1400XL).

Hello,whitman ? Are you there at this moment since your last post in 2007 ? I have 1 question about 1 device on your list.

I can see there are plain brown cartridge there. Make me wonder if this cartridge in that photo match to : http://www.atarimania.com/demo-atari-400-800-xl-xe-in-store-demonstration-program_19329.html ?? Or only unique cartridge for that "Atari Home Computers" arcade ?? Yes, I can see there are Atari 800 below the brown cover...
