Update: Wasteland will run on the Apple IIGS!

Submitted by magnusfalkirk on September 22, 2008 - 10:30am

Greetings,

Last Friday I was messing with KEGS on a PC and decided to see if I could get Wasteland to work. I switched the ROM image it was using from the ROM 1 to ROM 3 and then started it up with the Wasteland boot disk. To my surprise, considering that it wouldn't work on the GS emulators I have on my Mac, it booted up.

Apple IIGS Monitor / Keyboard Issue

Submitted by ChildrenOfNiobi on September 21, 2008 - 7:42pm

Hey all,

Just got a IIGS system (woot!) and there are a couple of funky things, namely that the monitor and keyboard don't seem to initialize properly when the system is powered on.

With the monitor, the system must be powered on first, or the monitor is "all squiggly". I seem to remember this from back when these were new, that the computer had to be turned on first, although I'm willing to concede that my memory might not be perfect Sad

Apple II+ Double Beep

Submitted by TheKisho on September 21, 2008 - 2:15am

I'm in the middle of fixing my Apple II+ and after removing and putting the CPU back into the machine it now double beeps on start and on reset (yay rest works again). I'm just wondering what this means. I know my ROM is screwed but I'm not sure if the double beep indicated no rom or what.

Apple II Plus Diagnostic Confidence Disk

Submitted by TheKisho on September 21, 2008 - 12:22am

When I was browsing eBay I found a 5.25" floppy for the Apple II Plus labeled as a 'Diagnostic' 'Disk'. I was just wondering if the disk image exists for it on one the the Apple II software sites since it would be really useful in fixing my Apple II+. (It would be good to figure out if my Apple II is completely fix or if there is still a bit of problems to fix).

Apple iie newbie file transfer questions

Submitted by Panther96 on September 20, 2008 - 5:44am

Hi everyone, just joined the forums. Had my iie for a whil, but not really done a great deal with it, just set aside as part of my retro collection. But I'd like to try and get it running a bit more, but frankly I am not sure where to start.

I currently have a iie with apple monitor and 2 x 5 1/4 floppy drives, I've booted a couple of games off floppy but that's about as far as I've got, so here's the questions.

ADTpro not working with win xppro 64bit

Submitted by Sabot68 on September 19, 2008 - 1:18am

ADTPRO refuses to work on my win xp pro 64bit computer.
When I launch it a command line window briefly flashes up on screen, a folder window appears in my task tray pointing to c:\windows\java then nothing. I have updated to the latest java version, version 6 update 7.
Has anybody else had success using xppro 64bit and adtpro?
I have a laptop that has the 32bit version of xp pro on it and adtpro lauches fine, problem is the laptop does not have any com ports and i'd rather not have to buy a usb to serial adapter as they are waaay over priced.
