The Sinclair QL Forum

Hi, elg4rion67 a recent circuit diagram appeared on the mailing list of the MEDIC disc interface, here http://tfs.firshman.co.uk/temp/medic.zip , I also have the circuit board but it is not working at the moment, I also have the Microperipheral's disc interface that also doesn't work properly, if yo...

I have purchased several bits of QL related stuff and been amazed by the speed it arrives, A+++++ as they say in eBay.

Lots of answers to lots of points raised, but at the end of it is it possible?, an new QL system for less than £400?

I have now rescued Night Nurse published by Shadow Games - it is quite an easy game, but made difficult by it being painfully slow (written in SuperBASIC with machine code sprites). I have just spent an hour or so improving the SuperBASIC (lots of poor programming - FOR... NEXT loops, without any E...

It would be a useful feature and as you haven't had any response, I would suggest you try the mailing list although that has gone a bit quiet recently.

The program you say works with the whole screen (Photon) would that be a WINDOW screen perhaps, as that may be sizeable?

Yes please will borrow and look at the disk as well, my PCML disk interface is soldered directly to the board here https://picasaweb.google.com/lee.privett/PCMLFloppyDiskInterface#5581076412075072194 are the WD1770 chips not available anymore? Here's an interesting one, I placed a 500K Expanderam in...

They are PC drives and yes the link is on DS0, and cable untwisted and also works perfectly well with the PCML interface I got from SellMyRetro( :lol: ), however changing to either of the two Micro-Peripherals gets the time error, I will go through the whole process tonight to check and note each st...

Well the first thing is the interface with the dip switches, took me awhile to realise that the switch has been replaced with a R.S. Components unit and was upside down so all the switch positions where AAF. Having sorted that out I managed to get the floppy disk turning when typing in DIR FDK1_ som...

Rich, any luck with the QL software on eBay, I see it went ?

I see another Bog entry about read twice/write once coming up up, as you can see when I said Miracle Systems, I actually got the M right, but meaning Microperipherals instead.
