Do those go to the same "Checking for Updates" screeen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problems, seamless. - Update to version 20211014.083614.production - Full update took under 4 minutes to install, after download completed (fast) - No BIOS update (password unchanged, verified) There was also a (transparent) update to Chrome. Also, new user-interface features. (Details follow) - Friends tab on Dashboard. - Notifications in Account menu - below power on/off etc. I don’t have any of these updates every time i try to update my VCS is gives me a error any fixes?

DazRetroDomination Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I've owned my VCS for 2 hours and have followed everything this forum has suggested and I still can't use my VCS. It won't even let me create a account. Seems it can't reach the servers. It just hangs while updating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks sleek and sexy on the outside, but it’s internals are like a beta males heart; Full of problems, headaches, weakness, confusion, uncertainty, and nonsense. Just be patient, take a deep breath and wait for daddy to fix the issue. Edited December 15, 2021 by ConstititutionalCommando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justclaws Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 I heard from a source, that there should be another system update today, or very soon. This update should enable the VCS online scoreboards (for games which are coded to use them) as well. I think after the system update, there will be some further game updates to support them in other games. Some developers will no doubt not update their games, but it's good if future games can at least use them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that it's usually only a couple minutes max. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazRetroDomination Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Yep, you’re correct. Took 2 hours. Thanks for the reply 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Helper Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Great to see the VCS network is getting overloaded that means people are using it! Seems to be happening at the normal big usage times and Atari Age is where they complain about it. Love it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadiATIon Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 (edited) I noted since the bios updates I have trouble accessing the bios and refind or grub2 with 10 year old TVs. I have to wait several seconds (30 to 60) and manually choose the hdmi output to access it. No one else has noted this? No problem on newer TVs or PC screens.

justclaws Posted October 16, 2022 Author Share Posted October 16, 2022 If you didn't already apply the latest update to your VCS, it should occur at next reboot. All went smoothly for me, and subsequently updates to all the new series of Recharged Games. ... December 2023 - there is another new AtariOS update. As this update is quite significant, and updates the controllers as well, I temporarily created a new thead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
