I've been successful at formatting the floppies using fmsx-dos, copying programs using windows explorer (or just straight extracting lzh files onto the floppy, using dos version of LHA), then reading them on a real MSX. Worked for me 100% of the time, without any additional software. -- ak

Thanks for all the info, I'll definitely look at it in detail once I get home. As a side question, is it possible to remove memory IC from one machine and put it in another (solder, if necessary)? I have a toshiba msx1 which I really don't need; I'd like move its RAM into the Sony if possible.

Hi guys, Any idea why poke -1,170 (which is sadly required for almost all konami games) causes my sony f1xd to reboot? It seems that I can only get a handful of software running on it. Also, any idea why I can't get vkiller and mgear to run either (both bloadable)? Thanks -- ak Computer games

Thank you, that solved the problem for the smaller games. As for vampire killer and metal gear - the loaders seem to be a little more complicated, so my guess is there's other pokes and peeks involved. It's funny how little I remember after not having used the MSX for fourteen years :( -- ak
