[M100] How to re-enable rexsharp after cold restart

Hey everyone, I had to cold restart my M102 due to a hard crash.  I have rexsharp installed and I have a few ROMs.  But I don't know to re-enable rex manager now.  Doing CALL63012 just re-enabled the last selected ROM (TS-DOS). I looked on the site but I couldn't find any info on what to do

Re: [M100] Windows 98 solution for TPDD emulation

Steve, This thread reminded me of a distant memory - back in the mid 1990’s I had a game... and it ran too fast to be usable - maybe snake on dos :). Anyhow, there were several utilities that were available to slow things down. I remember using all of them, but have only vague memories of

Re: [M100] Windows 98 solution for TPDD emulation

Kurt, I was able to download Python 2.5.3 which did install in Windows 98. But as you suggest, serial port did not seem to be available. I'll look around. Steve On Sun, Apr 21, 2024 at 10:36 AM Kurt McCullum wrote: > Steve, > > It's a long shot, but if you can get get Python running on Win98

Re: [M100] Windows 98 solution for TPDD emulation

So, yes, desklink did work and seems ok. So that's good. works for TS-DOS. thanks for that reminder! Ideally, for CP/M use as well, ability to work with 8.3 file names is useful. Desklink definitely doesn not like 8.3. LaddieCon supports 8.2; I have it installed now. LaddieCon does respond to

Re: [M100] Windows 98 solution for TPDD emulation

Steve, It's a long shot, but if you can get get Python running on Win98 WITH the serial port support, then the Python version of mComm might work. Lot's of unknows in that suggestion though. Kurt On Sun, Apr 21, 2024, at 6:54 AM, Stephen Adolph wrote: > hi everyone, > I recently went through

There's also a backport of Framework 3.5 to Windows 9x here: Utterly fascinating reverse engineering work done to make this possible — originally as a backport of Framework 2.0 to Windows 95 — documented here:

Re: [M100] Windows 98 solution for TPDD emulation

No time to check it now but there's either a win98 or win32 flag to laddie command line that made it work on win98. You need to install the .net framework 2.0 and use the flag. The purpose of the flag is that it makes it use the win32 serial API directly. The 2.0 framework didn't support serial

Re: [M100] Windows 98 solution for TPDD emulation

Desk link should work. At some point laddiecon did work on windows 98 with some version of .net. I doubt the current version does but it's possible it could be compiled against an older framework to make it run if there is an issue. -- John. On Sun, Apr 21, 2024, 6:55 AM Stephen Adolph wrote:

I would think you could use a DOS PDD server like DeskLink - assuming the serial port is present and functional. http://tandy.wiki/TPDD_server On Sun, Apr 21, 2024 at 9:55 AM Stephen Adolph wrote: > hi everyone, > I recently went through an activity to build a Pentium 4 based system to > act

[M100] Windows 98 solution for TPDD emulation

hi everyone, I recently went through an activity to build a Pentium 4 based system to act as a "tweener", giving me a machine that can straddle both ethernet/IP based remote file storage, and legacy floppy support (5.25, 3.5 floppies). In addition it runs old programs like Laplink. This machine
