Hi! I know what it is... but don't understand why reports this. You wrote - need some RAM - I used MemMaker and optimized RAM, but always same message. How to config it? or before start any emu, close any app for clearing RAM? Miro Memmaker sucks. So if you did that manually--that would be way better. I would look at the CPU change that up for a pc with a pentium at least. Best of luck! edit: looks like you've already thought of that. Cheers Personally, I would dump all that DOS nonsense and just go with a debian flavour of LINUX and just compile.

DPMI = DOS Protected Mode Interface and it allows those old OS's to run stuff and make calls to the OS kernel in real time. In order for that, you need some RAM. I would take as much as you can in your config.sys and autoexec.bat files and load them hi. You need as much lo (main accessible ram) memory (640 and less) in order to run this stuff--sort like running out of chip ram on your Amiga, but you have 16MB of RAM on the system which cannot be accessed by certain things; such is this in the MSDOS world)... Crude error, but I would start with that first. I think you should have a command called mem or memmaker or memfree or something like that to help you get as much lower memory free as possible. FreeDOS os something like that might be a little better use.. I hope I didn't confuse the issue too much :/
Cheers, c

Thanks for the files! I missed this one--been busy with writing software... ugh. Again, many thanks! I just checked for dirMaster and it looks like a new version (3.1.0) was just released today Great Wednesday so far! Cheers, c

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone had that .dnp hd backup image of wheels128? It was on the old c128Alive! forum transfer location way back when. If it's still floating about out there somewhere could you share it again?
Cheers, c

For what's it's worth, I've just used ZED 128 and used the options (C=o to set input to petscii and print to ASCII or save to ASCII). To print as ASCII text (from in VICE Emulation), the generic print out is called vice.prt which is just a simple text file.
**Oops... For go to mention the VICE emulation from which to print from in the last sentence... my bad--sometimes I think faster than I write.

This USB2LAN utility is used strictly for moving files back and forth--an ftp--which is setup by the cartridge Network options--the USB2LAN has to be detected before this option appears. Nothing more than that at the moment. The 3.0 BETA 5 firmware which enables the USB2LAN options is much more stable within C128 mode than the 2.6k3 firmware is--keyboard timing and such is perfect when using the cartridge. But there is no VDC support and there is no 1571 support. To speed up the 1541 emulation, the UII is a fast and easy way of using JiffyDOS on the drive side by supplying the JD binary for the emulated drive (using the 1541II JD binary seems to work the best) in the cartridge options--works great in 128 mode. However, if you're going to use JD binary for the computer--which is easily done with the cartidge's options by specifying a kernal rom binary on the SD card, well, that will only work in C64 mode. For the C128, you need the physical roms in the computer. So far the later has been the case for me unless someone can show me what I'm doing wrong--which I'd be very appreciative if you do Cheers, c ..... Also some firmware versions of the 1541U-II support the use of a USB2LAN adapter. Even though I have the cart with its adapter, this case again, I did not do much research to understand how it would work.

I ordered one from Lief a little over a week ago. From what I've been told, the special software is for installing the parameters for your wifi. When it arrives I'll have a bit more about it for you.
cheers, c

Now you need a DAC and an LED for the 80 column display lol. Cheers.

Last night the ROM was in my mailbox. This weekend I am going to install it and see how it works. Thank you cbmguy. Cheers! =B-)

So I guess my remaining question is, can you provide a link to the USB->Ethernet adapter? I'm guessing you got it from Gideon (your post was not clear if you got the Ethernet adapter or the USB hub from Gideon). .... [edit]
Have you tried setting up an FTP server on your PC? Would that allow you download files onto your Commie? If so, that sounds like a great solution... just have your cross assembler output to the FTP folder, and then you can download the BIN file to your Commie?! [/edit]A USB->Ethernet adapter can be seen here on Ebay for $2.27US. Mine came from Gideon. I use mine with a powered hub and is a USB 2.0--the speed is no different between 1.0 and 2.0 in this case, IMHO. It works fine without the powered hub, as well from what I'm told. With the powered hub, I feel like I'm saving a little bit of wear'n'tear on my aging C128 power supply.
