Re: LOADROM.COM help needed
If it has 256KB mapped RAM (Not as stated on the desktop (256K RAM (128RAM+128VRAM)), then it should work, though I remember that it hangs also on my SONY 700 (256K RAM). What version do you have? of loadrom? I remember to have run many mega roms on my SVI-738 2+, with 1MB of internal memeory. It worked fine in most cases. AFAIK it supports DOS2, but I can´t exactly remember if it this had have something to do with it?

DOS2 4MB (and a little GEM news)
Hi all! I'm using the MSX-DOS2 mapper support routines and found something strange. According to the docs the total nr of segments listed in the Mapper Variable Table can contain 1-255. But a 4MB mapper has 256 segments! According to my tests with a 4MB mapper, DOS2 indeed lists it as 255 segments (4080kB) and trying to allocate all segments does result in segment 256 being ignored! Questions: 1. Is there a way around this? 2. It seems segment 256 is always free, is that a safe assumption? 3. Do the 2 DOS2 system segments reside in segment 254 and 255? I think it would've been better if DOS2 counted from 0, not from 1 :( Greetz, Patriek PS: Oh, I promised some GEM news :) On Tilburg 2001 I announced (ahum, stuck a paper on the TNI booth ^^;) a version of GEM using Dynamic Recompilation. At the time there was still a bug in it, but not anymore. My current development version is running around 25% faster on a normal MSX2. You need quite a bit of memory though (2x ROM-size + whatever else available). I don't know when a release will take place, but I'm working on it! ^_^ -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html

Re: LOADROM.COM help needed
I have LOADROM 1.1, and, it seems, my MSX2 actually has 128KB of RAM. Oddly, I'm able to load ROMs that are split and that come with their own BASIC loaders... _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
Memory question
This is probably a stupid question, but... how do I upgrade the memory on my MSX2? If possible, I'd like to upgrade it to 4MB. ^.^ It's an NMS-8250, with, built-in, 128KB ram 128KB VRAM. _ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. -- For info, see http://www.stack.nl/~wynke/MSX/listinfo.html
