This is presumably pre-mouse then. Unfortunately, the machine came with 3
roms, but only one cartridge; so I have to open it up & swap the ROM in the
cartridge. Yes, I got it the wrong way around first time, so it's plausible
I've popped the EPROM :( It doesn't identify itself as ICE on the bootup
screen, but then I've got the TC plugged in, maybe that's affecting it? I
did have to re-seat TK2 to make it work.
I'm wondering if that'll get my elderly "SuperToolKit" ROM working as well
- I've had that for about 5 years, and it didn't work from the time I got
it. At the time I didn't dare take it apart, so it landed up in a drawer
somewhere. I've probably lost it by now...

I'll try moving it about a bit; but TBH if it doesn't work I'm not *too*
fussed; I've never had ICE before, but QPAC is the defacto standard is it not?
Cheers!
