If you have a supercart I have platocart on disk. Also, the Plato interpreter does not like the myarc dssd controller, course will not load. Works fine with a ti or corcomp controller

I just bought a 16k expansion cart off eBay. Will that get the job done for the 8k games and such? Or will I need to buy an 8k cart as well. Like I think I've posted earlier I'm a ti'er but I am kinda enjoying looking into the Vic and the 64. Ralph.

GameBase20 huh? I have never used it. Will it allow me to transfer software to a disk using Zoomfloppy? I am very new to the Commodore scene and do not fully understand all the different things. Thanks Everyone for the posts of information to an old fart like me. -Ralph...

I believe I'm going to see if I can find an 8k cart cheap. I saw a video of berzerk written for this machine that was fantastic. Thanks everyone for the help! I didn't know expansion ram for the Vic was so damn complicated! Ralph.

Wowzers! Seems pretty complicated for an old fart like me. Maybe I'll try and get a commodore 16k and add switches. I've done enough hacks with my bel

I picked up a Vic 20 and another c64 off cl this last Saturday. I am wondering what is recommended for a memory card for the Vic 20 and if anyone might have one for sale? I have read that an expanded Vic could load cartridge files? Ralph.

Zoomfloppy installed. Works great! Is there any site out there that has a collection of utility software for the c64? Like a diagnostic disk for the computer and a disk alignment? Also is there any site out there that has disk fiiles for a Vic 20? I picked one of those up along with another c64 on Saturday off of cl.

Yes. Gazoo felt it was an incompatibility problem with the myarc. I tried it with a ti 32k with no issues. I use the myarc RAM disk so much that I don't care.

I could cap off a few rounds with my raging bull into the peb. Or blow the dancin' gofers head off. Did somebody step on a duck?

If that 5 1/4 backpack starts heading for the dumper contact me first please.

That'd make a helluva peb.

I will be receiving my Zoomfloppy today. What software would you guys recommend using to download from the internet to the floppy drive? Are these thingies pretty easy to set up? I am getting my 64c motherboard back from Ray today as well - things are looking up for my C64 endeavors. -Ralph...

Don't know what the wiring is about, but to do an 80 track upgrade you just pop in a different EEPROM.

Attached you'll find two .dsk files - the one named sssd I cobbled together with some programs I had. The other intitled tcub is on that the Tigercub (Jim Peterson) had put together back in the day. They are Extended Basic and Console Basic - some require speech. Hopefully you have the means to convert to a real SSSD disk and can enjoy them with your daughter. -Ralph... tcub.dsk SSSD.dsk

PeBo!!!! Welcome back! I was starting to get a little worried about you mate. Ralph

Wow, you've got a load of treasures there! Any chance of saving them off to a .dsk file so we could check em out on real iron? Ralph

I'm gonna hang on to mine, sounds like it could become a rare cart after all the cats have dumped.

I've loaded rxb into my gk and have found that boot does not recognize that xb is present. I have ran a directory from boot and it will not allow an x to be placed to run an xb program. Anybody else have an issue with this or is it just my screwy setup? Ralph

It be a 3 1/2 matey.

I believe the enclosure for that drive is from an ez-135

Nice digs big dog.

^^^^^^^^ that is correct, I have done it when I had one of my gennys set up. A corcomp controller was used for drives 1-4 and I had 2 80 track drives hooked up to my hfdc. I don't remember any issues. Ralph.

Go to wht and look for an older version of ti99-pc. That's what I use on my windows 98 based machine for my transfers. It runs out of dos and has served me well for many a year. I only have a 3 1/2 drive on the pc, would love to find a backpack 5 1/4 drive to hang on it for transfers. Hope this helps. Where did you find omnidisk? Ralph

I actually did an image search on google with ti-99/4a hfdc and found an image that was large enough for my tired old eyes to see. It's on the left side.
