Heh, most likely they took the good chips out of your machine to put in another 800. and then they shoved the bad ones in carelessly. Anyway, the chips from bottom of the board (closest to the connector) are CO14599, CO12499 and CO12399. HTH

Well, I hate to tell you, but thats usually what causes a green or yellow screen. The ram is normally easy to diagnose. Just boot with one card at a time. If none work, then its highly unlikely all are bad as you say. The OS is 3 chips IIRC.

Shouldn't be a problem. He is member here. http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?showuser=1423

My old high school Deutche is good enough for the gist of it. CPUWIZ says he would dump them. Rudolphy replies no way he will risk sending them overseas. Wiz then suggests Stolberg in Hamburg will do it. Carey85 says congrats on the find.

Sounds right. It also makes sense. Didn't Trip Hawkins complain bitterly about copying and Omnimon-type mods? EA might have put some protection in there.

$25 for 1Mbit or $40 for the 8Mbit. You need the larger one for Ultima. http://www.atarimax.com/flashcart/documentation/index.html

He recently added something to his "Closer to Home" website after three years. http://cth.dtdns.net/

True the official 8bit versions are pretty bad. However, all of the 5200 versions are also available. Most of you know this, but for the newly interested in the 8bit, the mysterious "Glenn the 5200 man" converted them years ago. You can get them here: http://www.atarimania.com/lst_soft-MENU-8-...CENCE_ID-1.html

The amount of games for the 8bit is staggering as the guys at http://www.atarimania.com/ are proving. Thought I knew most of what was available back in the day, but now see hundreds that I never even heard of.

Their cart looks like this

If there are two Anteaters, then its a good price, believe or not.

http://www.atariage.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=66078 Only $500 for a CIB :wink:

Heh, was thinking it was a 5200 title. <cleans glasses>

Maybe... http://www.atariprotos.com/5200/software/m...microgammon.htm Tempest I should have known where to check first What about http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...8175414198&rd=1 ? A new one?

anybody see the 5200 proto on eBay? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...ssPageName=WDVW micro gammon - ever heard of it?

He means that after everyone pirated all the software. They put multiple programs on one disk with a menu system. Various menu progs were available.

There are 300+ carts for the 8bit. Only about 200 are games. Of those the 80-20 rule applies. 150 or more are easy to obtain and under $15 for a loose cart. About 40 titles are scarce. None of the ones you mention are in the rare group. Beamrider may go closer to $15, while K-razy titles are in the lower range. However, as Deathtrap indicates, anything can happen on eBay.

Very rare. Congrats! I believe it was originally on disk, but they burned some cartridges. I'll wager that it is an eprom. Synassembler from Synapse is similar. Only a few carts are known. Mainly, I think because the carts were very expense. IIRC, the program was discussed by Mark Chasin in his classic assembler language book available at the Atari Archives.

Loved this one. Almost perfect. In some of the higher levels when things really get hectic, there is somewhat of slow down. Too much stuff on the screen? Zoned out on it a couple of times and reached somewhere around level 35-40. Can't remember exactly.

All those Sirius games (Worm War I. Fast Eddie, Turmoil, Fantastic Voyage etc) were apparently just the 6502 code from the 2600 game with minimal adaptation to the A8. If nothing else, its bad for the programmers like David Lubar who did such a fine job on the 2600 to have their names attached to what is essentially a hack.

I am with you so far. This is the part that I have been unable to confirn. Is it listed in any ROMOX catalog or literature?
