Gordon Bennet - Quickbeam

Having taken the attached WAV direct from original cassette - having issues getting it to load into XROAR or convert to a CAS.

WAV file seems to be good quality, but the loader is a custom one and may have some interesting features !

Anybody fancy a challenge?

Re: Attic Bug - ebay - Dragon

I bought mainly the titles that are not available for download - they have not been preserved - so they take priority.

Different packaging and other variations are only useful if you are looking to have a 100% complete collection.

Re: Attic Bug - ebay - Dragon

I have grabbed a few from them, even at those prices - but just the ones I have not seen for years and still needed. Which reminds me that I have a box of ~130 tapes that are not yet available in CAS/WAV format - now if only my current PC sound card did't bugger about with the line-in I could do som...

Re: My dragon won't load tapes

This will either be your tape player or the tape itself. Nothing wrong with the Dragon if it can load from a WAV via a PC. The tapes do degrade over time, hence the effort to preserve there content. Usually I set the volume to 75% of its maximum and ensure the tape head and capstan have been cleaned...

Re: Retro Solstice Event

There was no Dragon out for playing on because the D64 I took died on Friday during setup - not sure what the problem is yet - but garbage on screen so possibly SAM.... However the Dragon Professional was on display in the middle section but out of reach from sticky fingers. You also missed the Ente...

Re: Wiki: "hidden" pages...

I have bumped a few more of you to full Administrators of the Wiki - that should help in letting you clear up the last few issues.

P.S. - Game In Archive was something for myself that simply means I have a physical copy - same for Book In Archive etc.

Re: DragonMMC progres report.

I *think* this may be there already - but ability to automatically mount and run a specific CAS file - such as Autoboot.cas so we can autoload a menu system??

Re: Dead Dragon Disk Drive -please help!!

Also - check that the drives themselves are not belt driven - I know a large number of original Dragon Data drives were - the belt will be knackered by now and need replacing. Hopefully you have made a record of any changes so you can back track - you can power the drives from cheap chinese +12/+5v ...
