Here is something I ran across today taking apart an old wireless mouse card. https://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data Sheets/Cypress PDFs/CY7C63722,23,43.pdf this may work for PS/2 and USB keyboard/mouse support. granted it is obsolete now but ... I may fool around with it see what shakes loose.

Got the files transferred to the RPI. Got the AVRdude partially programmed, when my wife woke me up. She's so awesome. More on the morrow. Sleep well TInstrumentians. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

A Wild Challenge has appeared. Roll Initiative!

Thank you kindly to all who were working with me on this! I was so excited to have this work.

Following up on the internal fan. I would recommend doing a project like this. https://www.electroschematics.com/temperature-controlled-fan/ I might tweak some values to make it work with a 5volt 1amp fan. h

I emailed Ralph and got a response today with the completed files. I will be working with avrdude tonight to get the FG99 finally programmed. Thanks to all who contributed! will keep you posted.

even though I have no PEB yet. I'm gonna say put me down for one. Preassembled if you please :-). Thank you kindly for your work on this.

I am Noob. That being established, the Zenoboard looks like a solution for (as was previously mentioned), saving space. Is there a working version? the notes state that there was a single trace line where a fault existed but should be easy to overcome. This looks like a very fun project to undertake.

That is the joy of aging. The ability to see the beauty in a wider age range with regards to the female form. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

Thanks Wierd... I just noticed the misspelling and found it to make sense ... Wy Erd. Weird Wired.. like it.. kinda like my brain sometimes. Lol Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

and I see what you mean about the heat . mines only been on an hour or so .... and the case is very warm over the power supply... gonna install a couple of fans. Thanks for that!

recording to tape successful. Checking Data.. DATA OK

so... helps if you don't try and take everything from ground. got signal to the TI "DATA OK"

hahahahahahah I derped the connection... hang on reworking connection

swapped em, but still no TI output. Lemme make sure that the signal is still getting through.

first attempt is a "ERROR - NO DATA FOUND", even at 125% output.... gonna try some volume work.

Ok I found this self powered peripheral enclosure and am unsure as to which peripheral would be the best to add. If you had 0 peripherals what would you add? The Zip drive is just there to show space. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

I checked the for the file in the directory listed [email protected]:~ $ cd /home/pi/ [email protected]:~ $ ls -a . .claws-mail .gnupg .pp_backup .Xauthority .. .config .local .profile .xsession-errors .bash_history Desktop MagPi Public .xsession-errors.old .bash_logout Documents Music Templates .bashrc Downloads Pictures .thumbnails .cache finalgrom .pki Videos [email protected]:~ $ Couldn't find the file. Is there a way to create it? oh damn my work buddy reformatted this to Buster... ok lemme put Raspbian on here.

Somehow this simple solution eluded me. I was so focused on following the instructions, I failed to find an alternative solution that would have made things easier. Thanks @jedimatt42sorry you had to explain this. I have emailed the support email link requesting the end result files of the Python Build. - "PACKAGE.HEX" - "UPDATE.PLD" Thank you all for your patience with me on this.

That would be nice. It is already soldered down though :/ the github guide leads me to believe that the programming is done after it is soldered to the board. Granted, the FAQ is good, and well laid out. I think I am gonna do a "The Modern TI-99/4a Mod Maker Dummies Guide". Laying out my mistakes and how they can be overcome.

@mizapf If you're using RPI linux how would you edit your path? This is the current hang up. I made sure I had 2.7 python installed but am getting the same error as above Errno 2 Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
