More DiskROM
Oh and btw, does anybody have proper, complete and detailed DiskROM documentation? Mine is pretty scarce. Thanks again. MARK 2 MSX Mailinglist.

DiskROM *MOTOR OFF*
Hi you lot! I'll be adding DiskROM-level motor muting logic to the game, as the standard timer interrupt calling loop method could have some problems depending on the stuff hooked to it. I'll be using proper logical drive sensitive routines, but I don't find the motor off entry point address in my documentation, and old messages about this topic have vanished from my mailbox. Could someone please re-post that address (plus parameters if any)? Kisses in advance. MARK 2 MSX Mailinglist.

GFX9000 for sale [in DUTCH]
Ik heb ooit een GFX9000 gekocht bij Sunrise, alleen heb ik 'm eigenlijk nooit gebruikt, vooral omdat ik er pas erg laat achter kwam dat zowel het kabeltje van Sunrise als de Scart-aansluiting van mijn TV het niet deden. Nu alles het weer doet, doe ik echter nog steeds niets met de GFX9000, dat is zonde, dus lijkt het me beter om hem te verkopen. Ik vraag HFL 299,= voor de GFX. Ik woon in Utrecht, dus misschien dat het loont (ivm met de PTT) om het op te halen (d.w.z. doordeweeks). De GFX is vrijwel ongebruikt en zit al in een kastje/cartridge(hoe noem je zoiets?). Ook het kabeltje van de GFX naar een scart-aansluiting zit er natuurlijk bij, alsmede de programma's PICView en de Basic (alleen TurboR). Andere programma's zijn volgens mij te downloaden bij Sunrise. Interesse?

As far as I can tell from the datasheets, the TCP/IP stack is not implemented in hardware - so it must be some software solution offered by ZiLOG. +-- Eric Boon ---+ || ++ MSX Mailinglist.
