Hi Francois, Thank you for your input. My puzzlement is where do you actually type FORMAT Win1_10 to get a 10 Mb win device on C. I have tried the run command and it obviously tried to do something but I cannot find it. TIA Regards, Peter On 18.07.2015 10:53, Tobias Fröschle wrote:

The real problem is the locations for the win1 to 8 is hard coded in the scource of smsq and smsqe. Either alter the source code, assembling or hack smsq.bin or smsqe.bin by removing the drive locations, and keeping the file the same length by adding nulls after. I have done this for years

Hi, I think a little RTFM (Reading of The Fine Manual) is required. However. QPC2 has formatting of QXL.WIN disabled by default. To create a new WIN drive, you must issue the command: WIN_FORMAT 1 Then enter the command: FORMAT WIN1_10 This format a 10mb QXL.WIN file in the location defined

And also not for the two native access parts, Atari and Qxx- There were always SBASIC ways to select a WIN to format at will. - Original Message - From: Marcel Kilgus jms1 wrote: The real problem is the locations for the win1 to 8 is hard coded in the scource of smsq and smsqe.

Just type the WIN_FORMAT and FORMAT commands into BASIC in QPC, like any other BASIC command. The FORMAT command is just the hard disk version of the normal FORMAT command. The '10' is just the size in megabytes, so if you want a QXL.WIN of size 100MB instead of a 10MB one, you would use FORMAT
