Then with color/bw switch set to color, hold down Reset and power on, while connected to the USB port of your PC. You should hear the bing and then use the tool. Did you update an Evercade unit with same PC? Then you have to remove this driver and install the right one!

MrChickenz Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 (edited) @sculix I might be wrong but that’s not the correct .img file update-1225.img? And can you update from Onedrive Backup or is that a folder on your computer? I don’t use onedrive so I’m not familiar with it. I believe this is the file that should be selected (Update-071024-1.1x-r6.img) you have to click the Firmware button select the file name (Update-071024-1.1x-r6.img) then click upgrade Edited August 18 by MrChickenz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maztr_0n Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 my ADHD requires me to ask something i asked before but probably forgot that i may have asked this many times before across several weeks. but here goes... Any word on if the Updates have a rough estimate on when they will come to Linux (Mint)? I know they will come to Mac and Linux but i'm wondering if theres any kind of official date or at least estimated quarter to expect it... I still have 1.0 and honestly, i tried doing a VM to update it but i feel like my desire for the update wasn't enough to spend the entire day trying to troubleshoot it, so i may just ask Thank you.

"Found One MASKROM Device" when i turn the Atari on with the right switch settings. I never updated a evercade with this PC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See if you can find a "blue" one. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or indulge yourself with the gratifying experience of opening up a special videogame pack thats stayed sealed for 40 years. Imagine peeling off the shrinkwrap and opening up the box fresh contents!

+sramirez2008 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) I have a couple loose Star Raider pads and a couple loose Children’s controllers. I love the CCW games. I’ve tried, to the best of my knowledge, to complete the series with a couple of custom carts (e.g., Monstercise and Peek-A-Boo).
