Hi Laurens, But, Javi, isn't the CF-IDE just extremely cool??? ^_^ Yep, that's exactly why I bought it. :) Really, I still love it :) small, silent, no external power supply... You tell me about that... This is how my MSX looked like when I was still living in Spain. Notice the mess behind

Hapzee: what you could also do is connect your MSX to your PC via RS232, and let the latter act as a server (bridge is the proper word, I think). Then you can use your broadband connection. I did it already with Uzix some time ago. Been chatting on IRC with Zica on my MSX (it was a

Hello, Have you tried another brand CF cart? Sunrise advises against using CF carts 32MB because the chance for incompatibilities is much bigger for those. However I can imagine some (cheap-ass ;)) CF carts could still give trouble. If that doesn't work either though I'm rather starting to

Hi Maico, If memory serves well, you should press DEL or some key to bypass CF bootup and boot normally from diskette. With the fdisk you should do the partitioning and then all should work normally. Your memory serves you very well. Booting while pressing DEL the computer started correctly and I

Hello, IIRC, I got the No enough memory when my SCSI interface was in a higher or lower (can't remember) slot than the IDE interface (I use a CF Adapter + normal IDE interface). But since the OP specified nothing else was connected to his turboR, that can't be the problem... The BERT scsi
