Goochman #1 Posted October 26, 2010 Folks, I have a Spectre 128 I purchased many years ago. In the age of saving disk space on my 40mb ICD drive I ran a program called DC Squish to compress executables. Ive been moving all my stuff to my UltraSatan II from my ICD drive but have not been able to get my Spectre 128 to boot. It could be the cartridge (Ive done all the cleaning I can think about) - however I know some things broke when 'compressed'. I cant find my diskettes anymore and couldnt find them on line. Anyone know where I can get the latest Spectre 128 diskettes so I can confirm whether or not my cart still works? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+doctorclu #3 Posted October 27, 2010 I got the software off Atari-Fourms Yeh you can can thank Geocities going down for the loss of the Spectre page I used to have up, which was there with the blessing of Dave Small and everything. Maybe one day I'll put it up again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe one day I'll put it up again. I wish you would, I really enjoyed reading it. David Small was definitely one of my computing heroes back in the day.

Maybe one day I'll put it up again. What was the address of the page? There is a project to archive the old Geocities pages and they may have it.
