gs80065xe Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 I'm beginning to use Turbo Basic XL. I downloaded an atr from atari wiki with it on a SpartaDos disk. I've copied those files to my Sparta Dos 3.2g hard disk atr. I can boot and use Turbo Basic XL fine. But if I press the reset key while in it, it returns to Sparta Dos. And all work and the program are wiped from memory. Any Turbo Basic XL users no of a fix for this? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gs80065xe Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 I learned on the Antic Podcast on Turbo Basic XL, there is a patched SpartaDos version 3.2 which will resolve the issue. It is 3.2q. I'll give that a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGB1718 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 MAC/65 also does this on U1M with SDX enabled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGB1718 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 MAC/65 V4.2 using Altirra SDX 4.49c, PBI BIOS 3.02 will try later on my 800 with Incognito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGB1718 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Just tried on my 800, goes back to DOS, just the same. Also disabled SDX on Altirra and booted a floppy , does the same on that too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flashjazzcat Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 This is a MAC/65 cartridge/ROM or a disk-loaded version of the assembler? Can you link to the specific version which will let me observe this behaviour? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the problem is they conflict with eachother. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the problem is they conflict with eachother. Certainly the case. What's required is either a version of TBXL which does not sue shadow RAM, or an implementation of SD 3.x which doesn't (i.e. BW-DOS).

If this is the case, then the observed behaviour is exactly as expected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
