PenUltimate+ VIC-20 Cartridge con software Diagnostico

PenUltimate+ VIC-20 Cartridge with diagnostic DeadTest+ support

La nuova versione della PenUltimate+ cartridge anche se apparentemente sembra identica alla versione precedente non lo e’ perche’ sono state fatte delle modifiche e un aggiornamento software per il supporto del software Diagnostico DeadTest+.

Tutte le cartridge prodotte da Dicembre 2018 includono il supporto del software diagnostico DeadTest+

Il software Diagnostico DeadTest+ puo’ essere eseguito tramite menu oppure mantenendo premuto il tasto di reset per 10 secondi all’accensione.

Rispetto alla prima versione la Penultimate+ include ancora più ROM (70+) e una nuovissima interfaccia utente.

Sono stati inclusi alcuni giochi di tfw8b (The Future Was 8Bit) tra cui Cheese & Onion, RodMan, Pentagorat (Easier edition) e molti altri.

Naturalmente la PenUltimate+ cartridge resta la miglior Ram Pack per il VIC-20, la RAM di espansione da 3-35k può essere selezionata direttamente dal menu.

Ringrazio Dave Curran di Tynemouth Software e tfw8b (The Future Was 8Bit)

Amiga 500 Plus Baciato dalla fortuna + Floppy Drive Riparato

Commodore Amiga 500 Plus kissed by luck

Il mio nome è “ittero” e il mio cognome è “fortunato”.  :-)

Perche “fortunato” ? perche’ la batteria utilizzata in questo Amiga non era della VARTA ma GP, queste batterie resistono leggermente di piu’ all’invecchiamento e rilasciano meno acido.

L’unico difetto che aveva questo Amiga 500 Plus era il Floppy Drive che non leggeva nessun Floppy Disk, il motore girava piu’ lento del normale, e’ stato sufficiente sostituire un condensatore elettrolitico da 4.7uF per farlo funzionare nuovamente.

Ringrazio il mio amico Igor per la donazione.

Amiga 2000 già riparato nell’aprile 2016 ora Black Screen

Amiga 2000 already repaired in April 2016 now  Black Screen

Questo Amiga 2000 era arrivato nel mio laboratorio in pessime condizioni nel lontano Aprile 2016, il computer e’ stato riparato e riposto in una busta antistatica.

Provato a distanza di quasi 3 anni, il computer non da segni di vita.

Non avendo nessun output video ho utilizzato la DIAGROM di Chucky che tramite collegamento seriale sono riuscito a identificare 2 problemi diversi con le RAM.

Difetto:

  • Black Screen

Riparazione:

  • Ricostruita pista interrotta lato DX 68000 vicino resistor pack RP900 (precedentemente buona)
  • Ricostruita pista interrotta RAM U529 segnale CAS (precedentemente buona)
  • Sostituita RAM LM33256 U501 con TMS 4256 (precedentemente funzionante)

Di seguito un po’ di foto random della riparazione.
