Apple II plus overflow error

Submitted by regentone on October 26, 2007 - 1:01pm

Hello, I just owned an apple II plus with interface card and generic language card. I dismanted it, cleaned etc. now it' s very nice, but I ve got a problem: with many disks (like for example prodos utilities ) I receive various overflow messages and it' s strange 'cause those disks worked in a 64k apple IIe enhaced (without 80/64 card). I' m not very expert in these machines expecially in plus or older. Could be the generic language card broken? I think it' s connected well in slot 0 with

building your own Apple II paddles? light pen?

Submitted by madscijr on October 22, 2007 - 4:37pm

Does anyone know the pinouts & potentiometer size that the Apple II paddles use?

I would like to build a pair.

Similarly, if anyone has any instructions (or a link) on building a light pen (and programming it) that would also be interesting...

Thanks

How to valuate an Apple II original?

Submitted by 2nibbles on October 21, 2007 - 1:26pm

Hi - I'd like to buy an original II, but I'm having trouble estimating the cost of a base system. I've heard and read anything from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. Can anyone shed some light?

Sorry if this is the wrong forum.

Can you clean a 5.25 floppy disk?

Submitted by Jim_GS on October 9, 2007 - 10:39am

I recently picked up a couple old Apple II programs the local library was discarding. When I booted one of the program disk it loaded the first screen then failed. A second boot got me a "check startup device" message. I then booted a known working 5.25 disk program and got the check startup device message again. I cleaned the drive head and that solved the startup problem.

Submitted by captain apathy on October 4, 2007 - 1:17pm

Hello, I am new to the forum. I discovered this forum while doing some research on games and gaming history. I was wondering if someone with access to the ROMS for The Prisoner and Terrorist could capture a few screenshots and submit them here? I would like to use them in a presentation and I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Modern mass storage or disk drive emulation for IIe

Submitted by 2nibbles on October 1, 2007 - 7:25pm

Hi everyone. I'm new to the Apple II's, and after poking around a bit, was wondering if there are any disk emulation softwares or mass storage devices from which I can boot standard disk images (particularly games) I have both types of solutions for other 8-bits, so there must (?) be something like this for the Apple. I'm aware only of the CFFA board, but from what I understand about it, it's a pure hard-drive like replacement that only works with ProDOS (or am I wrong?)

Thanks for your tips!
