Re: Hardware Problems

How long does it work when you do not invoke double speed? At room temparatures of around 70 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit, other than a burning smell emmiting from the case, it will run for hours at normal speed without any real problems. In the summer its not so reliable. That's around 20 degrees Cent...

Re: Wiki Style

G, H, and I, but not GLOVE, I'll leave it up to Mr. McKay if he wishes to move the entry. I have a question about All Dream (or is it All DREAM) by Grosvenor Software, is this the same program as originally published by Dragon Data? As it stands I have not given it an entry different from the Dragon...

Re: Hardware Problems

I have a very late issue Dragon 32 which seems to run very hot. It works really well at double speed (both 65495 A/D and 65497 modes) when its cold, but crashes instantly even in 65495 A/D mode after its been on for about 25-30 minutes. If the top cover is left off, it works without problems. I hav...

D, E, and F this time. I've separated ECLIPSE-FENMAR LTD into following: Fenmar Ltd. (as written in the manual of my copy of Total Eclipse) Eclipse Computer Games (as written on the tape of my copy of Total Eclipse) No doubt there is someone who can fill in with information on the name change. Talki...

Re: Wiki Style

Further to the above add the B, C, and W companies as well as Salamander Software to the list of all-caps names that may be deleted with the exception of: BASIC CONCEPTS (not sure of capitalisation) BE-HIND SOFTWARE (not sure of capitalisation) COMPUSENSE LTD (not sure how to handle entries that sta...

Re: Wiki Style

I've had a go in changing the capitalisation of all the companies that begin with the letter A with the exception of the following, as I don't know the proper capitalisation for their names: ACE ARC SOFTWARE ASN COMPUTERS LTD ASP SOFTWARE This should allow for the deletion of the old all capital nam...

Re: Wiki Style

I can see how to change the capitalisation in the body text (as well as turning relevant titles into links), but how do you change the capitalisation of the article's title?

Edit.
Ignore the question, I've discovered that move allows you to do this.

Wiki Style

Are there any style guidelines with regard to the Wiki entries? For example, for the sake of consistency are entries for programs supposed to contain certain information in a set order (e.g., Alternative Program Names, Name of Programmer or Programming Team, Original Publisher, Year of Release, Othe...

Re: Emulation advice needed

I'm not having the same problem as [retrofreak90] with Cuthbert Goes Digging: just played through a full level of the copy I have here: [snipped] Sixxie, that file is identical to the archive's copy, so I don't know why retrofreak90 is having problems, though there do seem to be some speed up/slow ...

Re: Emulation advice needed

With "Cuthbert Goes Digging" you must first disable Dragon DOS (in XRoar that's Ctrl+E then Ctrl+Shift+R) before loading the game. With "Cuthbert in the Jungle" I have been unable to resolve the problem, though it loads in XRoar 0.12 pre2, perhaps the tape image was created with an old version of DC...
