Shift838 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) I have the latest copy of Freds CF2k from his site and it shows on the main screen when it loads: CF2k v2.4 03-0502015 (CF7+) does the CF7+ mean it's only for the CF7 and not the Nano? If I press any key I get a FATAL: DSR error 6 Edited December 2, 2016 by Shift838 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 it is for both versions. when do you get this error ? "Any key" on the startscreen ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 it is for both versions. when do you get this error ? "Any key" on the startscreen ?? yup I get the start screen and see all the shortcut keys then pressing any key gives me the DSR error.

+Schmitzi Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 hmmm shortcuts on the startscreen ? on the screen you get when you power on the TI ? Or do you mean the menue from the CF2K ? If so, maybe something with filling the CF-card has gone wrong..... Did you use DSK2CF to convert the DSK-files? Maybe check the CF-card/volumes on the PC with TI99DIR....

Shift838 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 new CF card image. Power on TI --> select FR99 --> Select CF2k v2.4 Get short info menu.. Press Any Key then the DSR error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 aaaaah OK. Understand. I did not check the CF2K (BIN) with the FR99 yet. Maybe just copy the CF2K.DSK with the DSK2CF-Util to the CF-card, then plug it into the NanoPEB, mount it via TI-Basic CALL MOUNT(1,1) and the use the E/A-Option to start it (with the E/A-cart, not the FR99) this as a first step to see if your NanoPEB is OK Is it a new NanoPEB or did it work before ?

Shift838 Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 this is my version 1 Nano. Never tried it with CF2k. I have always used the CfHdxS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lee Stewart Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 this is my version 1 Nano. Never tried it with CF2k. I have always used the CfHdxS.

+Lee Stewart Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Try the attached image, which I created in TI99Dir as a blank 1600-sector DSK image and copied the files from the 720-sector DSK image in Fred's ZIP file.

Shift838 Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 maybe I have to use dsk2cf to transfer the disk contents instead of coping them via CfHdxS ? i know the CF card is not formatted in windows. not sure how it will mount the drive if the CF card is not recognized if this is the case.

Shift838 Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 just remembered I needed to run the dsk2cf program in administrator mode. Still DSR Error 6. got an email off to jamie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkdrummer Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Chris, I've got the same issue with one of my nanoPEBs. Please let me know what the fix might be, if any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Schmitzi Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 Most of my problems were solved by changing the Cardreader. you can find identically ones on eBay. < 10 $ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shift838 Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 i swapped the CF card reader with another one and still the same issue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried copying my CF2K_V24.dsk to the CF with TI99Dir to isolate the problem to the HDX transfer? I could not tell from your response whether you tried that and still had a problem. ...lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works with no issue on my version 2. What's odd is the DSR is recognized via CfHdxS. Hopefully I will hear something from Jamie soon.

klrw111-78 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I got my nanoPeb v1 last week and have the same issue when trying to run CF2k. I've used CFhdxs successfully, but get the dsr error when executing cf2k. Please post if you find a resolution. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparkdrummer Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I just got a new nanopeb and it gives the dsr error as well. Hopefully a fix will come soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Ksarul Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I suspect Jaime changed the address of one of the routines slightly, which would cause the program to fail spectacularly if it depended on that address (which it apparently does). As Jaime did a lot of work to improve other aspects of this release, it doesn't surprise me that he did some work here as well. You might want to take a look at a hex dump of his earlier DSR software and do a byte comparison to what he provides now--that will let you hone in on the change pretty quickly. . .

+Lee Stewart Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I have the latest copy of Freds CF2k from his site and it shows on the main screen when it loads: CF2k v2.4 03-0502015 (CF7+) does the CF7+ mean it's only for the CF7 and not the Nano? If I press any key I get a FATAL: DSR error 6 The “(CF7+)” means that CF2K thinks it is a CF7+—it says “(nanoPEB)” for me. Fred told me that CF2K checks the DSR for SIO for nanoPEB v1, COM1 for nanoPEB v2 and PIO for CF7+. I do not know the order of the checks, but the reason for them, other than being able to post which it is in “()”, is to determine the IDE I/O ports in DSR space for talking directly to the IDE interface because, unfortunately, they are different between the nanoPEB and the CF7+. If CF2K thinks it is dealing with a CF7+ and it is not, it will set the IDE I/O ports wrong. I need to check with Fred again. ...lee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Lee Stewart Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 I have not yet contacted Fred, but I am thinking that CF2K's check for which device is present is by looking for SIO, then COM1 and failing finding either of those, CF2K concludes the device is a CF7+. Jaime, on his webpage, only mentions the RS232 serial device for the nanoPEB v1. My nanoPEB v1 can use all three names for the serial device's port #1 that the TI RS232 card used, viz., SIO, RS232 and RS232/1. If my hunch is correct, the new nanoPEB v1 will fail to open either SIO or RS232/1. I would like to know the results of your attempts to open the serial device by all three of its possible names. You can do this in TI Basic or Extended Basic. Open with each device name and, if successful, close it before going on to the next one. Failure will result in “I/O ERROR 00”: OPEN #1: "SIO." CLOSE #1 <---if the OPEN succeeded OPEN #1: "RS232." CLOSE #1 <---if the OPEN succeeded OPEN #1: "RS232/1." CLOSE #1 <---if the OPEN succeeded Please let us know what happens. ...lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
