I thought that too - no sign of them - PLUS no guarantee that any of it works.

If the board has a set of jumpers (rather than DIP switches), you could try a new set of jumpers (!) I have an original MicroP ROM here which I could send to you for £4 including postage so at least you could eliminate the QFLP ROM upgrade. Unfortunately, it sounds more and more as though it is an i...

Actually, as you have switched to WordPress - I think there is an ability to restrict some pages to users within a certain group, which could be used to set up a members access.

Hello fellow QL users. I think I may be until now the only QLer from Patagonia. [/quote] Welcome to the QL Forums - we are all willing and eager to help.

Thanks in advance Tassos I have spare ROM and microdrive port covers (you've already purchased one ROM port cover from me) !! No expansion port covers thou...

The only real difference is that white plastic washer in the top right hand corner - this is needed on MDV2 to stop the screw pushing into the QL case.
