As a quick introduction, I grew up tripping over 386-486-pentium computers, because my parents were happy to brag that their son was really into computers and their friends always seemed to have some old computer in the basement that they wanted to get rid of after having upgraded, but didn't think …

I am starting to feel quite confident about this DMA emulation, I have a very rough proof of concept working I think I could do it. If performance becomes an issue somebody smart can rewrite in assembly. I do need to figure out how many people would want these cards. Once I have some further …

Hello, Vogons! I am looking for the way to run the Atari Notator on PC, in any emulator - Steem, Stew, and so on. This program is locked by a hardware dongle. P.S. There is a fat chance that I am missed the right forum, in this case show me please the right one. I believe there was a way, you need …

I don't think that would be legally possible. As far as I know, the console manufacturer has a legal say in every game that they allow to be made for their console I still don't see how that's legal. Printer manufacturers tried to lock out third party ink cartridges and that was ruled illegal. More …

Here you go: https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Diodes-Incorporated/1N4002?qs=%2Fha2pyFaduheH93dtZT%252BILjjp8X36fFnRPctSXSI%252B7A%3D That should be a suitable replacement. Mouser has a feature that cross-references and finds modern replacement parts for some components. Excellent, that's the …

I've decided to try to finally get around to fixing my SC-55, but my knowledge of electronics is limited. The issue is a blown D1 diode, listed on the parts sheet in the service manual as 1sr35-100a t-93, which is listed on it's family datasheet as a DO-41 package here: https://www.datasheets360.com …

I don't understand why this exists. Keen is a dead franchise, the only value it holds is in nostalgia for the people who grew up with it and with the retrogaming crowd who have tried it out since it died. This won't appeal to young people because they have no idea what Keen is, it won't appeal to …

I have no idea how I never noticed ArOS.. I wonder what would be a good hardware configuration to test it on.. AROS is old enough that it runs well on older hardware, which is why I've had it on an old p4 laptop. Throw 2gb of cheap ram and an IDE hard drive at it and it'll be extremely happy. The …

RiscOS 4 has been freely available and partially open source (and under fairly active development) for years now. RiscOS 5 was the subject of a weird licensing situation for a long time and therefore hasn't seen nearly as much active development. RiscOS 4 runs happily on all models of Raspberry Pi …

^^ ArOS/IcarOS looks really good, I've played around with it on VMs a bit but never set up an install on real hardware. Maybe it's time to do so. I wish they'd get it to boot natively on PowerMacs to give MorphOS and their insanity-sauce "licensing" scheme/DRM idiocy some competition on that …

I have a broken SC-55, the battery appeared fine but I went ahead and replaced it anyway since I have plenty around, but I discovered that someone must have plugged the wrong power supply into it at some point because a resistor right on the power input was snapped clean in half. I don't have nearly …

Seconding the request for the disk image, I have an AG-10 and there is no online source for the original software. Also, if anyone has Sealed's old soundiver template, please do share it. His site went down years ago but it can be found archived here and presumably the template should also work with …
