  1. Happy valentines day - show you Adam some love with some new software! Use "Flippy2017" coupon code in our store (http://retrosystemrescue.com/product-category/coleco-adam/disk-library/) and get 1/2 off your second disk if you use the Flippy code. You will get a flip disk with side A containing one image, side B another. Minimum 2 disk order. Milli
  2. Check for continuity in the actual wire too - it may be broken somewhere
  3. Well... Technically the Adam is the printer, keyboard, one data drive and the cpu (memory console), so I wanted to make sure no one thinks they are getting a complete system. There are people who dont read and would just see the one picture and think wow everything. Milli

  5. Ever wanted to turn your Colecovision into an Adam computer? http://www.ebay.com/itm/222392834352?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649
  6. HI guys - if interested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/222385033854?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649
  7. If you have an adam and smart basic write a little program to test it, thats what I have Milli
  8. Already gone - they usually only take about 3 days to sell - I'll put another up soon same deal - maybe with a few extras
  9. I actually just updated it - I sold one in August and used the description for the games in this since they are the same games- didnt realize there was a block of text about the weight from then with the date. The one in August was auctioned and went for 275 - this one I am testing the waters since it has an after market power supply and keyboard cable, not a complete original system with printer like the one in august

  11. You can adjust these screws to clear up the signal and audio
  12. Adjust the RF modulator to tune the station
  13. Get that special someone (or yourself) something for Christmas. 25% off any purchase over $10 at http://retrosystemrescue.com/ - use Coupon code XMAS2016 at checkout! Milli
  14. Hi - am refurbishing an Adam for resale and have an issue with the printer. The print head does not strike the daisy wheel when I print - The relay is not making the plunger move. I swapped heads and it is the same on the other head, anyone know where on the circuit board this may be controlled? I am thinking that maybe a capicitor or something is bad Any help is appreciated Milli
  15. Take good photo and upload it to http://whatthefont.com
  16. If you are reselling it I would suggest not, unless you tell the buyer - I have refurbished a lot of adam parts that were fixed with hot glue, tape etc- messy and ruins the original (and getting rarer) parts
  17. Hi I repair and sell refurbished data drives http://retrosystemrescue.com Milli
  18. Direct link to the controllers: http://retrosystemrescue.com/product/adam-game-controller/ or if you prefereBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/222237697843?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649 (I charge a little more on eBay)
  19. Hi - you can get a mAdam controller and switch out the pad - I sell them http://retrosystemrescue.com Milli
  20. No languages are built in - unlike most 80's computer systems - the Adam has the word processor built in (I think one of its failings) and you have to load any language or operating systems. So you will need it on datapack or disk as NIAD said - You can get a lot for software from my store and if you have nothing contact me, I'll send you a basic tape to get started. Milli
  21. I am assuming you are using the emulator still - if so and it is the dos version look at the adamem.txt file for details. You will need disk and / or tape images If you haev them here is a simple dos command line to start it adam -da "full path to disk image" replace the "full path to disk image" with the full path minus quotes. You can have up to 4 disks, -db -dc and -dd and 2 tapes -ta and -tb like I have here: adamem -da media/disks/smart.dsk -db media/disks/smartwrk.dsk -ta media/tapes/transfer.ddp -tb media/tapes/hacker.ddp -dc media/disks/ann/MAR16ANN.dsk This loads smart basic, gives me a scratch disk (drive b) and loads a blank tape image, one of hackers guide and one disk (drive c) of one of the old ANN disks On new PC's you can use dos box to make it work
  22. You can sometimes adjust that - if you pop the cover on the RF modulator you can adjust Channel B to get channel 3 and 4 to be cleaner and Audio subcarrier to get sound back (see pix) Milli
  23. Hmmm guess I don't need to finish AViD - or is this like the IDE in that it is not fully compatible with everything Adam? MIlli
