Are you sure it's set as d1:? Have you tried booting from a different drive and see if it responds as a different drive number?
-
Did you try adjusting the color pot?

I've always liked this diagram that shows just how pin compatible all of the 27xxx EPROMs are:

I bought an Indus Drive with the original board in it years ago. It's the only one I've ever seen or heard of, so I would say they were fairly rare.

Are you sure there aren't just a couple of segments of the 7-segment display not illuminating?

What was your first experience in computer programmimg?
JR> replied to Larry's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
1978 using a teletype much like this one to write BASIC programs on some unknown mini computer at college. Followed shortly by IBM 370 coding in FORTRAN and ASSEMBLER. -
Yeah, I don't see anywhere for Omniview to reside on that board. How does the system act when set to view?
-
It looks like you have the Omnimon 8k ( https://archive.org/details/NewellIndustries8KOmnimonManual ) Upper and lower will be mostly similar but certain commands are only available in one bank or the other. To see if you have Omniview set the switches to Newell, ON, View, and boot into basic type X=USR(49152) and you should get 80 columns.

Or maybe there just happened to be a valid update when you tried....lol. At any rate I think one is a recovery partition that will always trigger the update and the other is the active one.

I installed refind and it came up with multiple bootable instances of AtariOS. One of the instances would trigger a reinstall, but the other doesn't. I just removed that instance from the refind menu.

TEAMGROUP memory is a partial failure for me at this point. Bought from Newegg last week... Installed it and it ran great with default settings. Went in today and made the suggested bios changes for 3200.....black screen, full fan Will go back in tomorrow to see if it will come back up after putting the old RAM back in and going back to default settings.....

Looks like the CPU had a socket added too. There was probably an 816 board plugged in there at one time. That switch tho......

I got mine from Brad at Best Electronics. I finally pulled the trigger because someone posted that he only had a few left though. It looks like they may be out of stock now.

Seems to do a pretty good job. I just picked one up recently and tested several 8 bits that seemed perfectly functional. It identified problems with several of them that I would probably never have noticed without it. The long burn in tests are especially good in finding faults that are intermittent.

This is the board: Usually packaged in an 850 case:

Well, so far rooting about has not yet yielded the manual. Searching my email does reveal that I should have a photocopied manual somewhere. Apparently Rory McMahon was kind enough to send this to me way back in 2005. We also discussed the disks. He was going to check and see if he had them in with his boxed Amdek III, but it doesn't look like either of us ever followed up on that. Back to rooting.....coming across all kinds of stuff I'd forgotten about!
-
Not yet, but it's finally cool enough to go rooting about in the garage...LOL
-
Would definitely buy a right cartridge version.

Saw that on Facebook too. Was hoping it wasn't true. Very sad! R.I.P.

JR> replied to svhovater's topic in Atari 8-Bit Computers
Those drives should work fine. I currently have a FD55B-01-U and a Mitsubishi M4851-112U running on mine. Make sure your jumper settings and termination are correct. -

Having trouble getting games to load on SDrive Max.

Maybe your Option key isn't working?
