shoestring Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) Ok so I did a little work on the XE this evening. So I realised that I had the wrong MMU in there, there was some confusion over that ( see whole thread ). So I reprogrammed the PLD with the correct code. Machine still produced a solid red screen so I swapped the OS rom with a spare from the 600xl which I won't need anymore ( Antonia upgrade ). Machine fired up, needed a little colour adjustment. Picture isn't as good as my two XLs but it's still nice to see her live again. Edited December 8, 2016 by shoestring 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoestring Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 I forgot to mention that I also had no click sound when the keys were pressed in basic. So the NOS GTIA finally arrived and I installed it, now I have my clicks back. Now the question is, where can I get a label from ? I know someone is selling a reproduction on eBay but I'd like an original. If anyone has a spare lying around that they don't want or knows someone please let me know. It doesn't have to be a 65xe label, 130xe one will do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+tf_hh Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Look for the ebay seller "marstickers". This seller, located in Poland, has several different badges for Atari 8- and 16-Bit computers. I purchased some of them and they´re fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you sure all versions of FREDDIE are CMOS? There are at least two versions and the older one was released in 1983 for the 1400XL. And BTW, I'm pretty sure MMU and EMMU are CMOS gate arrays.

I´m pretty sure to find a note in the Freddie development documents spreaded over the ususal download places. But I may wrong... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
