Need some info on odd Atari 8 bit cart: CLASSware Eductional Cart


Recommended Posts

This is what I've been working on: CEMC-B.WRK.txt

Remove .txt extension... It's a Dis6502 workbook file.

 

As you will see everything from $A000 to $AFFF isn't referenced anywhere in the cart. What little bit of the Basic interpreter words aren't used either. It looks more like patched code, which isn't complete. There are calls in the $BD6x range, but this data segment is just filled with 0's...

 

Three bytes from $BFF6 to $BFF8 are written to in the code, so unless there is additional hardware in the cart which changes banks or something, it's a useless bit of code.

@swlovinist lent me his copy of this cart, which I have dumped. It is the "Ind" version. On the actual Atari, it shows the attached screen then makes the cassette beep noise.

 

I dumped it using Jindroush Cartridge Dumper, which makes a 16K dump, but I can't figure out how to slice and dice it make it work in an emulator. Help?

Hi Kevin,

 

the cartridge image looks ok, it probably came with a floppy that contain software/code in BASIC XL, that is require to load

and the Basic program is the actual software, the cart can be a version of Basic XL that call the software on floppy to run automtically
