budz2355 Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Hi Everyone, I'm sure this is a dumb question: I went to DM 2K and tried to bring up the DSK5 directory which is my ram disk. Unfortunately it came back with an error. Are the rechargeable batteries dead? If so can I just replace them and go back to using it? I remember when i first got the card Chris(shift838) helped me set it up, but god help me if I remember any of the steps. It's a 384k model i believe. Any help is appreciated! P.S. yes that is the manual in the picture, but I figured I'd ask you smart folks before confusing myself with technical reading Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrax27407 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Try reloading ROS before you remove the batteries. If you remove the batteries, you will have to load ROS and reconfigure the RAMdisk anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atrax27407 Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Which ROS were you using? Boot the configuration program. Once it is loaded, If you see the message "No ROS Loaded" simply follow the on-screen instructions and load the ROS file from the appropriate disk (make sure the filenames match). Sometimes, the ROS gets corrupted but the Horizon contents will still be there intact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneMultitasker Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 the printed manual in the background is not the most recent. If you used the 8.14F disk, you must select the right version to match your disk controller. If @Shift838 helped you load the ROS, he probably had version 8.38. The most current release is 8.42c. The below direct link to the horizon ramdisk Wiki should give you enough simple context and information to get started. https://github.com/horizonramdisk/Horizon-Ramdisk-ti994a/wiki/CFG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dug through some diskettes and I either mislabed/lost it or overwrote it with something else. I looked on WHTECH FTP site, but I wasn't sure if the newest version was there?
