Could someone please post the 64K upgrade information for the Dragon 32. I had this document, but can no longer find it.

Now if only somebody like Sixxie could get hold of the source code or make an XROAR JAVA port we could have the games running directly within this site.... 8-) I have asked for the Mocha source a few times over the years....didn't get a NO....but didn't get the source either. Have you ever asked Br...

Early Color Computers had the same problem. I think an older version of the SAM was to blame but it's been a long time since I last heard about it.

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 have...

I did the mods today, and it worked like a charm. Thanks Simon!

BTW, Do you have any service information that mentions Dragon mainboard overheating problems?
