well until tonight i havnt tried any tandy stuff. So going off the wiki i needed to use tndy redirect and maybe patch. Found that eye of the beholder did not need to be patched. tndy wouldnt run with emm386, so expanded only and the default tndy options worked. That produced the beeps and boops. But …

Yeah I’m going to try a compact flash. I could also try some older large disks Do you have or know anything about the memory card? I’m also thinking if it’s possible to solder in some sim drams to the open spot on the board

I have the same laptop and the Conner drive is dead in mine. Although I’m trying to use a sdcard. Have you had a look at the bios? It only supports 47 hard drive layouts. Maybe your new drive has different parameters than the Conner? Edit realized there is up to 47 types Edit 2 I’m a similar …

Is windows running something different in the autoexec? Maybe another batch file like dosstart.bat? Maybe you know already but hit escape to see if something is running at startup that you don’t have in your dos mode startup

For about $50 for a roland UM-ONE and a computer you can play any soundfont from a MPU-401. Another very versatile solution is mt32pi (serdashop …
