Jr. Pac Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Will an Atari 400/800 power supply work with the Atari 800XL or Atari XE? Does the XE have 48k of RAM? I recently went to the flea market and found controllers, TV hookups, and power supplies, all at the same booth, but no system. =( I also want to play Jr. Pac-Man.

4hubbs Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 The power supplies are different, the connectors are different. I believe the XE computers have 64K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+wood_jl Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 What he said. 400/800/1200XL power supply is like the disk drives 810/1050/XF551 and the 850 interface module. 9V AC and round barrel connector. They may look like this.... ....with one cord coming out of each end of the brick. Or they could look like this.... .....with both cords out of the same end. In either case, the connector will look like this..... The 600XL/800XL/65XE/130XE/XE Game System all use 5V DC and the power supply will look like one of these..... .....and the connector will look like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
