Re: [M100] Simple communication, M100 -> com1: ... can download from PC, but can't upload

I've also found the terminal software can make a difference for me... I wasn't haveing great luck with Putty or Teraterm at all...  (First things I tried with my Win10 laptop)   So I pulled out an old CD and copied Hyperterm to my Wn10 machine, and that worked great (as it used to when I used it

up good.   But if I'd just put it away and waited another batch of months...  Who knows...   If you haven't checked your battery and/or replaced it, I'd do that... (or get someone to help you)   Sent: Sunday, August 30, 2020 at 3:35 PM From: "Desi Villaescusa"

  As to converting binary and ASCII BASIC files - the easy way is with the emulator, VirtualT. It can read and write both formats, making it easy to convert back and forth.      Tom Wilson wilso...@gmail.com (619)940-6311  K6ABZ   On Sun, Aug 30, 2020 at 5:27 PM Eric LK <tr...@lefauve.org> wr

[M100] Successful battery replacement and q: on screw size

OK,  I finally got around to replacing the battery on my 8K 100. Wasn't too bad.  Battery hadn't leaked too much, so cleaning wasn't too bad. Some white vinegar to neutralize and then a lot of isopropol alcohol and cotton swabs...   Put it back together and it is still working!  Woo Hoo!   Q

Re: [M100] Favorite games

Re: [M100] LCD Lines

Thanx for the info on this. I have a Model 100 that sometime recently developed a single missing horizontal row of pixels. I was thinking about opening it and possibly heating the strip a bit to try to fix it, which is a common known fix for similar issues with the original Gameboy and I have don
