  1. Working fine for me, thank you @ascrnet. Including the build date on the menu screen is handy πŸ‘
  2. Thanks @ascrnet and sorry for the delay. I just tried a group of 64k carts, including Williams 64k that previously failed. Every one I tried worked fine πŸ™‚ Thank you.
  3. Try the flash_nuke.uf2 from here... https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/microcontrollers/raspberry-pi-pico.html#resetting-flash-memory And then try the a8_pico_cart.uf2
  4. Hello, Just wondering if you are able to perform this update, that would be nice (just bumping this so it’s not forgotten) πŸ™‚ Cheers
  5. Thanks @madness77 @phaeron @electrotrains For looking into this. I appreciate the efforts of all. Cheers
  6. Thanks for looking at this. I have found quite a few 64k files that fail with this error. Attached are two... Blue Max 2001 (XL).car Thrust.car
  7. Hello all, A quick question please I placed some 64k cartridges onto a PicoCart. A few of them give an error when you attempt to run them. "ERROR: CAR file is wrong size" The size of the files is 65,552 bytes, for both the ones that work and the ones that error. I tried the error files in altirra, and they all worked. I also tried a file from two different archives, with the same result. An example is thrust.car Am I missing something obvious? Thanks in advance.
  8. Good advice with checking the 4051's. I had a 600XL that lost a row of keys...swapping the 4051's and the fault moved to another row. 4051's are still easy to find too.
  9. Locomotive BASIC on the Amstrad CPC and Plus series.
  10. I had exactly the same failure a while back. Check out the link for a couple of pictures. If you read further down in the post you can see the VRAM chip that was replaced to resolve (as per the info/link provided by the good people above). http://atariage.com/forums/topic/254749-greasy-cartridge-port/?do=findComment&comment=3553078 Cheers, Shane
  11. Hello, Sorry, I only just noticed this...you may have the info already. I built a few FlashROM99's...2 years ago...where did that time go. Anyway, I just remembered that I screen captured my TL866 settings for the 8515. Attaching them here for reference. I have circled (red) a couple of things to note. The first screen on the TL866 software is called the 'Code Memo' screen. The 'Fuse Bits' need to be setup on via the 'config screen (my second screenshot). Hope this helps. Cheers, Shane
  12. Hello Ralph, I was thinking even a small update to the FR99 file limit would be awesome. My thought was instead of pages 1 through to 9, maybe go from 1 through to 0 (or zero to nine depending on how you want to say it). I understand startup times would increase, but For a single page (19 more entries) I don't think it would be much. And 19 more entries is still a great increase (bringing the total to 190). I understand something like this would probably be very low on your priority list (probably does not even make the list ), so just a thought. Cheers, Shane
  13. Forgot to mention...I'm not using External power on either.
  14. Hello all, I have 2 of the 32k Sidecar Rev.3 boards (Rev 3 boards: no jumper, it has been revised into the pcboard layout, and 74HCT245 with Cypress 62256 SRAM. These use about 25ma.) I always use them in conjunction with a FlashROM99 board. I have tried on two different TI's and also with 2 different Flashrom99 boards, without issue. Cheers, Shane.
