pps Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Hi Heaven, simply went to atarimax forum. There are some images you can easy "burn" onto the flash card. If you need a German translation of the manual, you can switch to this site: ABBUC e.V. Wiki Site about atarimax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heaven/TQA Posted April 17, 2004 Author Share Posted April 17, 2004 i am not able to flash any of the 1mb or 8bm ATRs... posted on atarimax forums... my 130xe just tells me after flashing bank0 a fail on the verify check... and now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjlazah Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Are you using a XE computer? Some do not work with the Flashcarts. I have one here that does the same thing. My other XE's and XL's work fine. Try a different computer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classics Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 I posted a newly constructed flashing image for you in the flashcart forum. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted April 17, 2004 Author Share Posted April 17, 2004 thanks... but failed again...so i took the other advise and checked the flashcart with an XL model and now it flashes... but it takes ages to upload the 1mb file... aarg... why not a small USB interface... let's see if this works now...

classics Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 If you dont mind paying $80 for each cartridge I can add USB. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 If you dont mind paying $80 for each cartridge I can add USB. Steve MMC would be even better... Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pps Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Hmm, I made my testflashing with a 130XE too, there where no problems and the cartridge works perfect... The XE was made in Taiwan. Perhaps the Chinese are the problem?!? -> other OS version... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven/TQA Posted April 17, 2004 Author Share Posted April 17, 2004 finally workes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFonck Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 simply went to atarimax forum. There are some images you can easy "burn" onto the flash card. Mhhh... I wonder if I can save/load those multi-cart images onto my MyIDE disk... that would save a lot of hassle uploading games separately.

TXG/MNX Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 If you dont mind paying $80 for each cartridge I can add USB. Steve Hi Steve, when the USB is driven by the 8-bit so we can attach memory sticks on the 8-bit it's fine by me USB on the 8-bit would be something super!

classics Posted April 21, 2004 Share Posted April 21, 2004 If they could get a mass storage driver going on that somehow we could attach everything from memory sticks to hard disks without any interface issues. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
