The error can be traced to Altirra 2.8 test 1 and upward (until the current release 2.99 test 2) The disk image directory can be explored from version 2.7 test 40 and downwards to v2.5. madi

Find HERE another update for Memo Pad for Windows Release 23 by joyfulcoder. madi

From Altirra (2.99 test 1) go to Tools -> Export ROM set... one of the exported ROMs will be atbasic.rom v1.55 madi

I hope things will get better soon. It is very difficult, painful and frightening to go through such feelings. But have faith in tomorrow, trust in yourself and always keep a truthful smile. madi

The program: SPD.OBJ (also inside the "Speedscript80 Orig.atr" image) needs Omniview OS to execute. The Speedscript 80 program (SPD.OBJ) will make a JSR to $C001. If it doesn't find the expected code, the computer will crash. madi

Thank you for pointing out that program. It is a promising project for sure. Unfortunately, I tried to execute it without much success. It requires Qt v 5.7.1 bundle library files installed (Windows XP) which I find it quit prohibited (1 gigabit + to install). madi

Attach is a working copy of Johnny_the_ghost_Powersoft_Drachensoft.ATR. The ATR image is on DOS v2.5 type format, since the total number of files on the original disk (without DOS and DUP system) exceeds the 2.0s disk storage capacity. madi DOS v2.5 Johnny_the_ghost_Powersoft_Drachensof.atr

Memo Pad Release 22 by joyfulcoder is ready for downloading.. HERE. Thank you Eric for the great utility. madi

Woooow. Really beautiful. madi

I would like to see a flexible Printer Emulation for the Atari that runs under Altirra and RespeQt. It will be great if it can be run as a stand alone application under PC/Linux/Mac environment. I wish I could see the great Altirra with a built-in printer emulation. That will defiantly make my day. madi

And to remind inpatient persons like me to press F1 while loading the games via Altirra to reduce loading time. madi

If "altirra.ini" is deleted while Altirra is running, the emulator will generate a new "altirra.ini" in place of the deleted/renamed file. The generated "ini" file will retain all the customization features that were present in the deleted file, plus any customization changes before terminating the emulator. Tested under Altirra v2.90 test 35 - Windows XP x32 - Windows 10 x64. madi

Tools -> Settings -> press "Reset All Settings" button Madi

My 800XL with U1MB works fine with my SIO2PC-USB devices (based on genuine SparkFun Basic Breakout and those with Chinese clone chips) at divisor Zero. SIO capacitors are present (not touched) madi

Actually, AtariGeezer had already recovered the missing 12 sectors in the repaired ATR disk image he had attached. If you want to fix Bount2_1.ATR using Diskey just make the following: - Boot Diskey disk while Basic is enabled. - attach Bounty2_1.ATR (in emulator or insert it in drive #1 if you use hardware) - Read sector 352 (type "R") then type "M" to go to modification phase. - Move to the last 3 bytes of the sector which read: 20 00 7D and change to 21 61 7D. exit Modify mode by going further down so to exit the last data row. - Disky will ask you if you want to right to disk. Type "Y" - Next sector will be changed to 353 If you would like an easy direct way: - Read sector 352 "R" - Type "CTRL-F" to modify next sector. Type 253 for the new sector number (instead of 0) and confirm the change. The above will take care of file EYGYPT sector sequential order. But the file length is changed (Increased by 12 sectors) and thus need to be adjusted. To adjust file length, "R"ead sector 362 (a directory sector). You will note that EGYPT file length is set to 214 ($D6). Type "M" to go to modification mode and change the second byte to E2 (226) and this will take care of file length. To verify the change Type "F" to inter to file mode. Type "F" a second time to select the file .. Type EGYPT. Trace the file by typing "T". Diskey should return with intact file. Press "L" to show all sectors related to EGYPT file if you like. The above will take care of EGYPT file, but still, there are more errors need to be fixed: DUP.SYS .. sector numbers mismatched (short) HUNB.SET neet te be renamed to HUNT.SET CODE.LIS total sectors need to be changed to 30 ($1E) instead of 89 ($59) In directory sectors 361 and 362 need to change first bytes of each file entry that has a value of $80 (deleted) to $42 (normal closed file). CTRL-? will show directory listing. To wrap up the changes, need to fix VTOC. This can be accomplished by typing CTRL-V Now your ATR/Floppy is fixed. madi

In Altirra, boot to Basic and type something like: 10 LPRINT "TEST" 20 GOTO 10 RUN Be sure to disable the Printer acceleration option from : System > Acceleration > P: (Printer CIO) -- is unchecked You will hear a continuous drum like sound. madi Edit: I just noticed that phaeron had cut the cake.

Still, for a normal user, such security certificate worming (on an empty page with red triangle Alert) is most likely will discourage him from entering the site. This may directly/indirectly affects sales. madi

... Deleted, Edit: I did not notice that C20 was an electrolytic capacitor. It become damaged by time/use. madi

I am sure that ProWizard has more to tell about this : "I use my Atari similarly, professional writing on LTW and I also do personal finance and business administration with the great Syn series software" madi

Same here. The drive spinning sound continues until drive stops. Actually, noisy. Madi

May I suggest that someone who downloaded the GamePack package from the same link (today) to attach the "a8_best_gamepack.exe" file that is under discussion for toddtmw to download and post the result. Maybe something happen when toddtmw was downloading and the file got corrupted.. madi

Thank you Allan You always spend enormous efforts and money and go out of your way just to preserve whatever stuff from Atari's old days for future generations. That is amazing. madi

Just had a chance to read this. I had to read it few times to fully appreciate it. Words of wisdom. Thank you
