Yes, this is in the definition of the standard. It must be, because on
power-up all registers (including hA8) are zero. Therefore, the reset
routine (and thus the whole bios) must start at address 0, slot 0-0.

The slot containing the BIOS which should be used on a MSX computer
can be found at location #FCC1. MSX1 documentation claims that this
address contains a byte indicating whether or not slot 0 is expanded,
but all later ASCII documentation -including the MSX Datapack- defines

If the second BIOS was not found and initialized there is not much chance it
will function :)
The first MSX BIOS (which will be at slot 0-0 due to the way the hardware i
have seen is initialized) must find the second MSX BIOS in the standard way,
if that BIOS is designed well and let it

About this problem: I checked the MSX Technical Handbook (MSX1). I'm

Hi,
There used to be a bee card list online somewhere.
Where is it, if it is still online?
When it is offline, can someone make a list of all available bee cards

It's a game which is in a 'credit card'. This card has a set of
connectors, so you can put it in a Bee Pack, the adaptor for them

Hmm, isn't it much easier and safer to use the value at #FCC1?
No, if it hasn't been initialized before. :)
