Sinphaltimus Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 My flashrom99 kit arrived today! I'll probably work on it any day now. I have to read the instructions a thousand times first. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I know you were looking for an Editor/Assembler module... well, with your new FR99, you'll be able to download the E/A II, which comes in two varieties, the 40 column version and the F18A compatible version with an 80 column editor. Both versions have the editor built-in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airshack Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 This is good to know! Thanks Omega. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinphaltimus Posted August 5, 2016 Author Share Posted August 5, 2016 I thought I needed 32k and a disk drive to run ea? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I thought I needed 32k and a disk drive to run ea? Ooops! My bad. I'm getting forgetful in my old age, at that moment I forgot that your system is CURRENTLY unexpanded. I'm betting by this time next year it'll be different. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to keep at least one unmodded and original. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeBo Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I'm already eyeballing more TIs. I'd like to keep at least one unmodded and original. That's exactly what I did. I have one console with an F18A (with flashrom99 and nanoPEB - which I was fortunate enough to get before they disappeared) and a second which is, and will remain, 100% stock connected to my PEB. The un-modded console carries the "Solid State Software" patch, while the modded one does not (thought that felt appropriate). A 99/4 (with volume control and headphone jack) slipped through my fingers last month (god I hate ebay's final-seconds bidding!), but I hope that a similar /4 will become my 3rd console someday. Then I'll stop*. *ya right! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 ... and a second which is, and will remain, 100% stock I keep one unmodded system as well (except for the fan), but I never use it as it's main purpose is for backup parts in case of a failure.

Sinphaltimus Posted August 9, 2016 Author Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) IT WORKS! Shaky hands, no flux and I needed to use cell phone macro for magnification. Also, a friend of mine noticed my 994a and said he has one in the box with manuals, he's giving it to me in October when we meet again.Yeah, now I'll have one for modding and one for stock. And can only hope this one comes with the mem upgrade. Now that would be something. EDIT: Question: What kind of electronics would I scavenge for a 14.31818 crystal? I have old PCs and laptops, maybe there? CRT monitors? etc? Edited August 9, 2016 by Sinphaltimus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega-TI Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Why spend so much time and effort to scavenge for a crystal. << JUST CLICK HERE >> You should find a suitable one in the package and format you desire cheaply. You may have to wait couple of weeks, but for those prices you cannot even drive to the local electronics store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
