Re: Announcing the new "Gold Card" - QIMSI Gold

Got my cable (miniHDMI to HDMI) but doesn’t work with my screen sadly (signal out of range)

Have ordered a miniHDMI to VGA instead to try, so will have to wait until Monday to give it another go

Re: Announcing the new "Gold Card" - QIMSI Gold

I have read the manual (multiple times), I just didn't put everything together correctly in my mind Thanks and my apologies. The manual probably lacks clarity then. I have tried to provide a lot of flexibilty for QIMSI Gold, but unfortunately that also makes the system quite complex. Hi Peter, Defi...

Re: Announcing the new "Gold Card" - QIMSI Gold

This is probably a stupid question, but then I can be quite stupid :o If I use my QIMSI SD card in the QIMSI Gold it works fine as a QIMSI But when I use the QIMSI Gold SD card the QL hangs at the Minerva F1/F2 screen Is it a case that when using the QIMSI Gold SD card I MUST have an external displa...

Re: Quill from Gilsoft

It’s just reached £32 and in the words of a dragon “I’m out!” If it were for the community, I would collaborate in purchase of it, digitalize it and then share it with everyone. But... how we never know if works or not, if it is what they said even... if the software is free for distribution... I w...

It was, but not expecting to win. 2 others were sold r...

Re: 68K/OS "ROM" based disk attempt

As per my previous post - the OE signal on the Eprom is active low - and on the QL PCB - and hence on the ROM socket - it's active high. You will need to invert the signal with a transistor or a logic gate. Easiest would be to use a BS170 mosfet - gate to the ROMOEH signal on the QL socket, Source ...
