Re: XRoar 0.31 released
0.31-w32 keeps freezing on my computer (running XP). I've had some success by increasing the number of audio buffer frames to 2048, but it's not foolproof and XRoar still freezes on occasion. Unsurprisingly, with "-ao null" XRoar works all the time.

Re: Repairing Floppy Drives
I know of 30 year old disk drives for other computers failing due to worn or perished drive belts. I don't know if Dragon Data drives are susceptible to this problem, but it could be something to check.

Re: XRoar 0.30 released
Further: you can't actually type in line 860 (v3) without deleting the space before and after DATA. Line 860 (v3) is exactly the same as line 900 from the original (v1) listing, since there is no warning about typing in this line I can only assume that Mr. Cadge arrived at this line after using the...

Re: XRoar 0.30 released
I've found another bug
and unlike the last time I'm pretty sure it's a real bug this time
. When importing .bas files XRoar truncates lines with 250 or more characters. For a few examples see my latest upload.

Disassembler by Brian Cadge
This download contains three versions of Brian Cadge's disassembler. Version 1 was printed in Your Computer (May 1983, Vol. 3 No. 5, p. 119-122), see the Internet Archive or WoS (pages 119 , 120 , 121 , and 122 ). The eagle-eyed will note that the listing is not exactly as it appears in Your Compute...

Re: Another Dragon version???
As Steve (Zephyr) mentioned earlier in the thread, this board has been discussed before. Phill (Prime) reckons that it cleans up the video signal.

Re: This is crazy - Double Disk drive for £445
And someone was fortunate enough to obtain a Dragon 64 for £55.50 including P&P, lucky blighter!

Maggots from Your Computer magazine
"Maggots" can be found in Your Computer magazine (March 1983, Vol. 3 No. 3, p. 64), see the Internet Archive or WoS ( page 64 and page 65 ). Just like the " Rebound " upload - which, incidentally I have updated - this is a text file that can be CLOADed into XRoar. This time I have resisted making an...

Re: PSU Pictures
I suppose I could post this as part of a wiki discussion, but why not post it here in a more public forum? Anyway in a bid to reach consensus, I think of the power supply unit as the brick which plugs into the Dragon, and the board in the pictures on the wiki page as the power board. What do others ...
