  1.

  2. Could also be IC A110, best way to know is to use an LED Logic Probe or an O'Scope and check the signals when trying to access a disk. When you power on your Atari, does the 810 attempt to seek to a track? If it does, then the write commands are working and would suggest the read circuitry is faulty. If not A110, then maybe LM311 could be at fault. I've had a scratched head before that caused mis-reads, but it did read the sectors...
  3. Yes, on my Sharp HDTV you select the Input first, then choose the Color System under the Options Menu...
  4. HackerBook has one on page 50. It can burn four types 2532(4k), 2732(4k), the 2516(2k) and the 2716 (2k). The burner uses game ports 1 ,2 and 3. This is one I built years ago and worked great for me... Jay
  5. Try changing your color settings from Auto to NTSC (USA) or PAL (EUR)
  6. It worked for me earlier this morning... 1) check the "Allow Outbound connections" 2) do not check the IPV6 option 3) uncheck the Require DTE option 4) set BobTerm to Ascii, 1200 baud 5) Press return to enter terminal mode 6) type ATDI bfbbs.no-ip.com 23 and hit return, it should now work for you too Jay
  7. My 6502 may be a bit rusty, but how will your draw loop ever exit when it's done?
  8. Extract the ods file from the zip and rename it with .zip instead of .ods ...
  9. I would like 2 of these please , one for XL with ribbon cable, one for XE Thanks, Jay
  10. Put me down for 2 quality boards too please Jay
  11. I'd still ask for a $20 to $30 partial refund, couldn't hurt to try...
  12. Well, that's what ebay will tell you if the seller reports it, trust me I know, I found out the hard way I agree, that was dishonest representation by leaving out details of the actual condition. Very misleading...
  13. You can't tell a seller that you will leave NEG feedback if he won't issue a refund, that's extortion! You have to word your message to a seller with a round about way instead...
  14. I have an 810 Archiver. Is that the same as "The Chip"? I opened it up and looks like it's just a ROM upgrade. I have to say that I prefer the 810. It doesn't have the performance of the other drives, but it looks so cool and retro sitting next to my 400. I really need to get another to stack on top of it and complete the look. Perry Yep, that is one in the same :-) I use mine to recover bad floppies, besides making back-ups...
  15. Also, if the seller is one of those who stands behind the general "AS-IS" (passing the buck, not my problem anymore) statement, it could be like pulling teeth

  17. For my 3.5 floppies, I just connect the SF314 to my ATR-8000, alot easier to modify the cable instead

  19. I got this recently: 1040ST's: eBay Auction -- Item Number: 160552859508p One turned out to be a 1040STE Just need to see what's wrong with it...
  20. Wow! How many 15 y/o's did you know who could afford an Atari 800 in 1979? I bought my first Atari 800 (16k) in 1981 for $699 and a 32k ram board for another $100. Back then I was only making $350 per month in the USAF...
  21. Looking for the Hamsoft and/or Hamtext Carts by Kantronics for the Atari... Thanks, Jay
