MINER 2049'er Cartridge & 800XL

[mrnukem]

Was going to bid on a MINER 2049'er cartridge I saw on e-bay but the seller indicated that it will not work on the XL series of systems however when I consulted the list found here : http://www.homecomputer.de/lists/Atari_800...=V4.1=Carts.txt it does not indicate that it's incompatible with my 800XL. Anyone know if it's compatible or not?

 

Thank you

I have a RAM-based copy of the ROM and it's always been fine on the XL.

 

I just tried the ROM image from Atarimania - no help there, it doesn't seem to work properly on either machine type.

The cart version does work on XL/XE computers, if its an original cart.

 

The file version was only recently properly deprotected so it will run on all xl/xe computers, even those with expanded RAM.

 

You can find the fixed file version here:

Yup, I have the blue label Miner 2049er cart and it works fine on the 800XL.

Both the cart and the cart image on Atarimania work just fine on the 800XL.

Many thanks all!
