[Atari Forum down]

Nah you will be fine, usually doesn't snow until after Christmas, at least in any quantity.

 

Opps... the transit is at Minneapolis, not Indianapolis. Guess it's around the same there as well.

[Atari Forum down]

Hey orpheuswaking, noticed that your're in

Indianapolis. Does it usually snow there around Thanksgiving weekend / beginning De

c ?

I be planning a trip to Florida around that time (but probably next year) and the plane transits there.

I don't want to be snowed in and stuck at the airport.

Great monitoring Dal !!

 

Been sometime since I came here... already forgotten my password.

 

This gives me a more time to work on my programs.

Getting it to work on MagiC is a real dog.

[Transfering files to the ST from PC]

The Atari-Forums Wiki does have a page on the method for transferring files between Atari and other computers.

http://www.atari-forum.com/wiki/index.php?title=Transferring_Files

It includes links to page for simple NULL modem transfer to using SMB network file sharing on Windows ( Samba for you Linux users ).

[Replaced bad HDD in Falcon, help]

i havent used it in a while and have forgotten how to partition and make the drive bootable.

 

Here are step-by-step guide to partition a hard drive using ICD Pro and HDDriver.

However, it is for a smallish drive, so you may want to it to the partition size limit.

[Information on getting hsmodem7 running]

I've never done it, but I've seen posts from others that use their PC's as a gateway to the Internet for

their Atari comps. I'd try to search the forums, post a new thread about it, or google for it. I believe

they use a null-modem cable for this.

 

It's right at my web site

http://phsw.110mb.com/nw-w7ppp.html

But it for Mint on the Atari side.

 

However, you can always configure STING to use PPP to avoid MInt.

[Mega STE and new hard drive]

Look here for Hard disk hints for MSTE.

[Replaced bad HDD in Falcon, help]

You should be able to format a large drive using HDDriver. I have done 60GB before and no issues.

 

However, ICD Pro have an issue with drive larger drive, I was not able to partition a 30GB drive but I can partition 10GB drive with it.

 

Look at the Atari Forum wiki on boot partition limitation.

[Seagate ST-157N with Mega STE]

Parity should be off as MSTE does not do parity.

Look at the AF wiki on Hints for MSTE

[Photos from PLatariada with FireBee]

The new hardware looks great..... and so does the food..

[What is the premiere emulator for the 520/1040 ST series]

I have always favored STeem. It seems to work and react like a real ST.

Also, let's not forget Aranym (Site here)

 

Yes, I use Aranym alot probably because of Mint rather than games.

But Aranym is a Falcon class emulator.

[What is the premiere emulator for the 520/1040 ST series]

STEEM... but it's an STE series emulator, a bit more than the 520/1040 ST series.

[ultrasatan next 20 batch preorder]

Easy i was tired but people give me very positive support on email and on Forever party so i think show must go on.

I order new boards for Usatan and netusbee, be aviable soon.

 

Greeat newss.... :thumbsup:

[My ST is in the closet]

No space and time.... that's my problem.

 

Falcon CT63+ CTPCI is my main machine. I try to go round robin on my Atari but mostly on CT63.

[What's the cheapest model of ST for gaming?...]

A STE model should be great for games.

1040STE or 520STE... and get a floppy emulator so you can store all your games on a SD card.

[looking for Falcon internal HD bracket]

Nothing fits from that big bag of Falcon hard disk brackets??

 

I wondered how it was an original Atari part so I looked at those from my Falc which I took off to install the CF reader and the CTPCI... both had the Atari Cxxxxx numbers on it. So that's how you know if they are original parts

[Why does my Atari SC1224 smell like burning plastic?]

Since the monitor is working, maybe there is lots of dust inside that give the funny smell. Try to clean the insides to see if it is still smelly.

 

My bet is on the dirty and dust.

[Atari Falcon030 for sale]

Could not edit the post anymore: sorry, should have been quiet, not quite.

 

That's what I thought, the US version has a different PS.

 

Cheers,

T.

 

They are different. See my pics in a post in AF.

[FOR SALE: Falcon with CT60]

How much are wives currently going for on Ebay? I'm not selling as I do not have one, hence why I am flooded with gear everywhere I turn!

 

hah... so may be a Falcon with CT60 will blocking your turn soon?

[How to change German st to US]

For power, get a 110V to 240V transformer.

 

You need US TOS roms. You can get them from Simbo over at Atari-Forum.com.

 

You just need to change the Keycaps on your keyboard. You can get them from KLund1 (I think he is here as well but I got it from Atari-forum.com).

There is an extra key on the German keyboard, between the Z and Shift keys (US Z location). But the US Left Shift keycaps is longer and will cover the extra key. (That's what happened to mine).

 

Be sure that you get the US ROM before change the keycaps as the ASCII code will generate German "symbols" on the screen.

 

The monitor is German... you mean the volume / on-off switch are in German, right? That will not matter because you figure which one is which.

[Atari Falcon030 for sale]

I am using a 240V step down to 110V transformer for my US Falc.

Been using it like that since 1995 or so when I got my Falc from the US.

[Best way to get a TT030?]

My offer is still available... http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/171992-best-place-to-buy-a-falcontt-030/page__view__findpost__p__2145282

With the original Atari TT030 box plus packing material, the box edges are taped to provide extra strength. But still it's an original box.

[Atari-Forum.com...]

It's up. hopefully better managed now :thumbsup:

[mega st keyboard to mega ste?]

The characters displayed are encoded to the particular language that the TOS is burned in the ROMs.

So to get proper British keyboard layout, you need British ROMs, American keyboard layout you need US ROMs.

 

Only Atari Falcon has international keyboard layout (only a few countries).

[Free STuff in Dallas, TX - USA]

I was in Dallas, Texas like 15 years ago, for a couple of months job posting.

I logon to the AUNT BBS back then, but failed to attend any of the Atari Club meetings at Dallas.

I think they were on infomart or something like that.

Wish I went and experience what's it's like.

Anyway I am back in Asia now, so posting your stuff across the pacific may proof too expensive.
