GroovyBee has written a nice utility for reading / writing the EEPROM (through the USB interface).

Use -

savekey --help

from the DOS command prompt for the list of functions

Awesome This will make dumping games with a SaveKey easier.

If you have any problems writing data to the SaveKey add "--poll" to the command line.

It seems to take an awfully long time to read 8K, is there any way that time could be reduced?

[GroovyBee]

Nope! Thats down to the driver for the USB chip that Richard used in the AtariVox USB interface. It might run faster on a laptop.

Thats too bad (I was using a laptop too!)

Could you add an option that omits the header?

I'll add it to my list of things to do.
