out to be a couple of kilobytes to big to fit on to the 800k floppy what is the problem.
They should fit but are not.I am getting the images from virtual apple.Also I am using asimov.

Apple I for Apple II

Submitted by mmphosis on April 1, 2006 - 7:17pm

Here is a program to run the Apple I monitor (and other Apple 1 programs with a small patch) on an Apple II.

There are patches to echo a character to the display and get a key from the keyboard. I am not sure if newlines work quite properly as I don't have an Apple I to see how these actually work. It uses HGR2 for the display so that the RAM from 0.3FFF is available.

Control L will clear the screen. Control Q will quit. Control ^ will allow you to enter control L and control Q and control ^.

I have an Apple 2 plus, with most of its original hardware and software. All seems to work well, but I cannot enter anything with the keyboard. I have tryed replugging the keyboard in, but nothing I try to do works.

Any suggestions?

Thank you in advance,

Apple IIc Plus and Fujitsu external 3.5" Floppy drive problems

Submitted by rleith on March 27, 2006 - 8:32pm

I recently acquired an external Fujitsu 3.5" 800k floppy drive. I cannot get it to work with my IIc Plus. According to the system manual....the drive should be recognized as slot 5, drive 2. Instead it sees it as slot 6 drive 1. The l.e.d. comes on, but it wont read any disks. I do a verify and it says the disk is write protected when it's not. I can't format a disk, verify a disk, or catalog a disk from the external floppy. Could the drive be toast?

Thanks in advance.

IIc keyswitch problem

Submitted by Jon on March 25, 2006 - 7:41pm

I just dug out my //c to get some stuff setup to let my child play with, and I found that the Control key is loose. I took apart the //c to discover that the top of the keyswitch has come apart and the only thing keeping the key in place is the key underlay that is built-in to the //c. I need to know how to get the cap back on, or somehow get it back together. I don't wanna pry on the keys much until I know how they come off. I can get the bottom (toward the user) side of the key cap to latch back on, but the top side might either be not latching or broken.

How to make a DOS Boot disk for my apple IIe

Submitted by FunnymanSE30 on March 25, 2006 - 7:26am

I have an apple iie platinum that I got from a school. It works fine but by the time I found it and asked they had thrown away the old 5.25" DOS disks, and games. Now my question is: How can I make either a ProDos, or Dos 3.3 bootdisk without an existing one. All I have is the .dsk image. I do have a 5.25" FDD in my Wintel PC but im not sure if i would be able to make the disks with that.

Looking for original Apple ][ keyboard

Submitted by nama_chari on March 24, 2006 - 10:14pm

Some of you have probably seen my postings on some Apple ][ specific online groups.

I'm looking for an Apple ][ keybord with the raised powerlight. I had a very unhappy accident with my one. I am in the middle of restoring an Apple ][ and I spilt flux remover on the keyboard while it was in transit, and melted many of the keys solid!

For your reference I have posted a picture of the keyboard type I want here:
