Thorsten Günther Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 Hum... I have enough money now to purchase this nice kit, but I fear they are sold out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Knight Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I would buy one as well if one was available - perhaps another survey for interest may yield more people interested? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+tf_hh Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Hi, get ntsc one - they are quite easy to convert - you need broken pal unit of any kind, xl preferably Looking in this thread at old messages... that´s why answer to this post now. I´ve done this way also. Buy a relative cheap NTSC 800 (mostly it´s cheaper to buy one in the U.S. and pay shipping to europe than buy a PAL 800 here in europe) and get the CPU board seperately from BEST Electronics. BEST sells the whole PAL CPU board (with 6502C CPU (CO14806) , PAL GTIA (CO14889) and PAL ANTIC "D" (CO14887) onboard) for 15 USD. You only need to purchase together with the CPU board the PAL system crystal (3.546 MHz, ATARI partnumber CO16112) for 1.50 USD. Change the crystal, change the CPU board and all is done. If you want to use the RF modulator output, you´ve to adjust the coil L2 for sound output (here are differences between PAL and NTSC). That´s all.

pjbramley Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Is the board still available, or is there going to be a second run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 considering the amount of people asking i would go with second run, probably smaller one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spamh8r Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Sorry if this isn't the best place to put it-- but I don't see anything in the FAQ-- Regarding the Incognito board (mine is on the way)-- Is there any place that has a full feature list/use instruction? I know about the install docs and the demo video, but wondered if there was any FAQ specific to it, as I don't believe I know what all it will do, despite the fact I've bought one!

+Firedawg Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 considering the amount of people asking i would go with second run, probably smaller one Oh, heck! I will certainly order another one to appease those who want one installed in their A800, so as to keep them off mine!!! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+sm3 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I'd like to pick up 1 or 2 myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android8675 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Finally took the time to install my Incognito last night, fired up on the first try, no problems. Going to mod the A800 Power LEDs with the Incognito display LEDs and convert the power light into the control button per Candle's little hack from a few months back. Love it, just gotta ask though what're the end-all/be-all utilities I should be looking at for setting up everything? fdisk? matr? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 if anyone is still interested in purchasing this board, please sign in here as for the tools, APT/FAT32 related tools are as usual on FJC page (www.atari8.co.uk) other than that - very much scattered around i'm affride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android8675 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Yeah, I'm getting that. Stupid one, how to you get into the Incognito Menu? I haven't hooked up the LEDs/programmer button yet. Also do you need to prepare the CF card ahead of time? fdisk is giving a read error when I try to open or initialize the disk. Thanks much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 atari logo + reset will get you into the menu Jon? could you answer the other part? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashjazzcat Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Also do you need to prepare the CF card ahead of time? fdisk is giving a read error when I try to open or initialize the disk. FDISK will only report "read error" when it can't communicate with the IDE hardware. So - two options: problem reading the card (bad card, some other unexpected IDE error), or the PBI (SIDE hardware) is disabled in BIOS. Can you check the BIOS settings?

Chances are the side wasn't on. The cf card was brand new. Thanks for your help. Gonna make a PDF of all this stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candle Posted March 21, 2013 Author Share Posted March 21, 2013 remember that CF card interface (aka SIDE) won't work in colleen mode as it uses XL/XE features (PBI) you need a soft driver for SDX to do that, or, limit yourself just to XEX files and internal loader (press and hold L while in menu) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
