Re: Breaking news: The QIMSI Interface
One of the issues I ran into with my vDrive, set as external so I think #3 and not #1 that some software written needs it to be to run from #1, is was mostly miss for software that ran. I would get errors etc... I know there was some device I could install in my QL to make that vDrive #1 but never p...

Re: Breaking news: The QIMSI Interface
Neato! Will you be selling these and is there a reason to have access inside? I take it maybe something inside "may" need access every now and then? TJ Hi, I have had a 3D Print of the QIMSI case, with a Resin printer. This gives a smoother print finish than PLA Prints. I have done an opti...

Re: Breaking news: The QIMSI Interface
Wow, what a nifty device! I will admit that I have only sparingly played with my QL since buying it, mostly because it has been a tad harder for me to quickly explore, in limited time. This device seems a perfect way to rekindle that QL interest and start using mine more in 2024! I will read through...
Re: QIMSI
Sounds like the perfect time for me to get off my arse and start using my QL more in 2024. This device may be the solution to do just that, make things easier for me to explore my QL. Email sent. TJ Dear all, as announced in the thread "Breaking news: The QIMSI Interface" I would like to s...

Re: Help Copying Quill from vDrive to Microcart
Oh wow, thank you! Let me print this out and download it, re-read, and see if I can get it to work. TJ If you get it to work, Game-of-the-week me on Battleship. That would be cool on so many fronts. It can run on an actual ZX81 (or on the Spectrum Next I presume) but having it run on an emulated Si...

Re: Help Copying Quill from vDrive to Microcart
Guess I will need to look again.
I thought I downloaded this but they did not unzip as a mdv file, which I thought it how the image is used on Drive.
Been a bit so I will re-read and try again.

I don't see how I can copy Quill to my SD Card then that goes into the vDrive since they need .MVDs, correct?
They can't just read the individual files after unzipping them from my download.

Re: Help Copying Quill from vDrive to Microcart
I think I will shake off the vDrive cobwebs to remember how to use it. haha.
Then try to place a copy of Quill on it and see about my 1st copy to mvd1 on a blank cart.
See how that pans out.
Never done a copy before. All new to me.
Hopefully the big user guide I will find helpful for this.

Help Copying Quill from vDrive to Microcart
