Sorry! Once again I mistook a TR ST with an ATARI ST!
Anyway, it's not fair to compare a 1990 TR with a 1982 C64. You should

It depends on some other things.
Are you using DOS 1 or DOS 2 ?
What is the current slot setting and where is this memman segment located ?
Do you have two memory mappers ? This gives some problems in DOS 2.

Hi,
Does BDOS use the standard TPA segments if you use the BDOS

The reason i ask is that whenever i want to load the file

Some people have asked about the sources of MSX-Emulators. I have put the
sources online for RuMSX (Partialy), Virtual MSX and Power MSX 0.04. You can
find these in the emulation section.
In the near future I also plan to put sources online of demos and other

I put a test version of the JoyNet Tetris game online.
You can download it from:

This is an early version, many features are missing. Two players can play
split screen. There is no JoyNet support yet. Also, the player cannot
influence each other.
