In Topic: Hooked on 8-bit carts

The verified Microprinter 800 is probably comparing two dumps that I have done of it. I have no doubt it is right but I don't honestly know if there are more than a dozen of those carts total in the world. It was written for a company and then never used. Only a few samples of each were made. A friend of mine knew the owner and got a 400 and 800 version for me. No idea where the rest of the carts got to so they could be out there somewhere. Long story short, it may be a long time before those two are truly verified by an independent dump of the carts.

FULS,
No worries. Glad to help. Might as well share them. I can PM you a list of the carts that I have and if you could let me know what is needed for a redump I'll gladly dump them. I completely forgot that Easy Scan II is a 'hardware' only cart and the disks hold the actual program so not much I can do there for anyone.

Here's the best I can do. It seems ok but crashes Altirra. I suppose it would help if I had the docs to be sure I set it up in the emulator right.

It is a right cartridge. Problem I was having was when I used the Maxflash software to dump the cartridge it would crash the software. Not sure if it is a problem on my end or the software so I will try again on a few different computers and see what I can do. I'm not sure if I can just overdump it and split it and come up with a good copy. I had to do that with the 810 Diagnostic since it is only a 4K eprom but Maxflash has no option for that. Had to dump it as 8K and split it.
