Re: Dragon 64 repair - a little help?

I don't think these are the problem, as the 32 works fine with them in. (I'm assuming both these chips are the same for a 32 and 64 - is this correct?) Yes. They are exactly the same chips.

Re: Tim Love's Cricket (Peaksoft)

http://www.acornelectron.co.uk/Tim_Loves_Cricket.zip That version of the game will only work correctly on a Dragon 32 (and any Dragon 64 that has been upgraded with Steve Woolham's Enhanced ROMs).

Re: File Formats

In the larger view of things, lwasm and other cross-compilers for 6809 have a much larger user base than some Dragon-specific tools have. So IMHO it is better to share resources as widely as possible, use general tools like lwasm that is being used and maintained by a larger group of people when po...
