Very nice adapter designed by Rolo that allows you to use the Rolo Multi-Cartridge also on the Emerson Arcadia 2001 / GIG Leonardo and Hanimex HMG-2650 console.
The Eprom need to be installed in the Multi-Cartridge and contains 64 games all fully working.
This is a good alternative for those who don’t want to spend an important amount of money for the Multicart Arcadia 2001.
Thanks Rolo for this great extension (Adapter) for the Multi-Cartridge.

Why throwing away a Commodore Floppy Disk Drive with a broken head it could become a great gadget to clean Floppy Disks.
How to do ? just disassemble the entire part that controls the movement of the head including the head itself.
The power supply used is 12v with at least 1A, you can see the connection in the photo.
Good Cleaning.

Changelog of Ultimate-64 / 1541 Ultimate 2+ by Gideon
- NEW: Audio Mixer

- 1541 Ultimate II and II+ only:
- Can now be used in Ultimate 64
- Ultimate 64 only:

- Display *.64 files as a directory via FTP:
- Every chosen FTP username enables this feature (*.d64 are shown as directory AND as *.d64 files)

- The username “d642″ disables this feature completely, (*.d64 are only shown as files)

Note for the Ultimate 64:
You will need a kernel, basic and character rom after the upgrade. These roms are not included in the update. These roms are distributed with vice-emu, but you can also find them on zimmermans.net.
For instance, you could use these roms: 901225-01.bin (char), 901226.bin (basic) and 901227-03.bin (kernal). Roms with the .rom extension should also work.

Irradio XTC-506R Repaired again.
It seems this small Irradio TV/Monitor always suffers from some problem, last time there were short circuits caused by the pressure of the cathode ray tube on the PCB.
This time some cold joints on the solder pads.it would have been very sad to throw it in the garbage trash.

Nintendo Virtual Boy Repair.
First of all, i thank Andrea Pierdomenico for this fantastic gift.
Below i explain how i have repaired the Nintendo Virtual Boy which show the classic display malfunction problems (both).
I have used only a pencil eraser and a SMD Rework Station to fix the connections of the ribbon cable to the Display PCB of the Virtual Boy.
The process involves heating the connection of ribbon cable to the Display and using a pencil eraser to push segments of the ribbon cable to the PCB.
I configured the hot air station to 145 Degrees and 55 of Air Pressure and i made 3 fast transition without ever stopping at a specific point, pressing between one pass and another with the pencil eraser.
It Works!

Thanks to my friends Charlie and Gerben for this fantastic gift which adds another piece to my Atari Collection that now begins to become respectable.
