Well my Audio has that but sometimes even my non-'advanced'-7MHz is too fast for that.

Well I think the speed of things like HD, FDD and MemoryMap will improve a lot using 'Advanced' 7MHz. I'd rather have incorrect timing than overloading (which sounds more dangerous and problems-giving to me). But thenk you for your clear explanation, now I know what to do... ~Grauw **** MSX Mailinglist.
