LOL. No. I did not create a large ATR image. I know what I did. I know what I selected. I know the results. The attached image is from the RespeQt app. There's a windows and Linux version if you're not a Mac person. Feel free to try it yourself

Well, my experience (not guessing) is that CopyMate v4.3 (sector copier) made a 1:1 copy of the source disk to my destination ATR regardless of the density. If the source disk was Double Density, CopyMate v4.3 would format the destination ATR in Double Density. If the source disk was Single Density, CopyMate 4.3 would format the destination ATR in Single Density. And the finished ATR was perfectly fine and booted on my Atari800MacX emulation.

Nope. Destination density doesn’t matter. I recently used CopyMate v4.3 (D1:) to do an archive project of about 200 disks. I used my Mac, an Atari 800XL (w/256k RAM), RespeQt r5.3 and a US Doubler’d 1050 (D2:) Some of the source disks were mixed density. My destination ATR image (D3:) was single density. CopyMate formats the destination to match the source.

When using CopyMate, the destination doesn't matter if it's Single or Double Density. CopyMate will match the density with the source.

So this method is incorrect???

I have 2 800XL's in very good condition. Both have been upgraded to 256k. Both had the S-Video fix done. Computer only. No power cable/adapter. Asking $200/ea + Shipping or $375 for both shipped from 90255

Curiosity just hit me. How do you know that Q-Bert didn't work? If you weren't able to play the other carts cause of the START key not working.

I was waiting on some 6810's to replace the one that I removed to make a US Doubler for another 1050 that I have. So after replacing c42, c43, c69 and c70 with those smaller looking capacitors, today I finally got a chance to try and test out this drive after receiving the 6810's today. The drive does not turn on at all. I don't have a multimeter. Anyone wanna take a crack at this board?

Sooooo......... Does this mean that MIO clones are gonna be worked on??

Bring up and old thread after doing a search, or create a new one?? Not too sure what the rules are regarding this?? So a 1050 I have has a faulty PCB and it isn't working as it should. I know it's not the actual drive mechanism because it works as it should on another 1050. So with the drive attached, the board makes sorta like a very low humming sound and the heat sink on this side gets pretty hot. And the drive itself doesn't do anything. So after watching this video and reading some of these comments, I changed out C43. I ordered the capacitors from Amazon (5 pack). And I got the small ones (black) pictured underneath the original (blue) C43. They both say 47µF and 16v. So I wanna know if they're the same because the new ones are smaller. And since C42,C69 and C70 had the same 47µF and 16v, I changed those out as well. But I haven't turned it on to test yet because I'm lacking this information. Can someone confirm? TIA!!!

I've done the UAV in a 800XL once. Yeah, I know what you mean about an awesome pic. But I just wanted to try out the clearpic on a 1200XL.

So with these different links for the clearpic mod, which one is the current one that I should do on my 1200XL?

Have you finished selling off all your laptops that you advertised in Facebook?

I use Atari800MacX to create empty .atr disk images

Thanks to @AtariGeezer for the new key cap, stem and spring.

You're awesome!!! Thank you!!

Yeah. Looks like you're right. The stem does look like it's broken.

Thank you for that link. I've watched YouTube videos and other websites. I'm still not sure if I should do it myself or send it out to get fixed.

That’s awesome!!!! Thank you.

I can’t even type DOS cause of the faulty keyboard.
