Apple //GS just boops

Submitted by Hawaii Cruiser on April 7, 2008 - 5:56pm

I found a //GS that someone was discarding. I plug it in and all it does is a short, soft "booop," and that's it. Clock battery is dated 1988. It has an Apple memory expansion card. This is my first encounter with an Apple //. I'm guessing it requires an external floppy or disk drive for a system. What should I do with it? Does it have any value?

New Apple IIGS RAM cards now in production

Submitted by vbriel on April 7, 2008 - 6:15am

I've produced a batch of 4Meg RAM cards based on my original design I did for Garberstreet a few years. If anybody is interested in a 4Meg ram card for their GS, let me know. These have been tested with ROM01 GS with CFFA cards. Sorry, I don't have SCSI card or ZIPGS to test with, so for now they are only guaranteed to work with standard speed GS systems. The retail price is $59 and I'll try and update my web page soon, or check eBay, I've been putting them up there.

Developing & emulating using CC65 -> AppleCommander -> AppleWin fails

Submitted by jaksel on April 4, 2008 - 6:54pm

I tried installing CC65 (compiler), Apple Commander (disk image tool), and AppleWin (emulator). I went ahead and built the "tgidemo" and "hello" samples included in the CC65 package, then used Apple Commander to put the *.o-files into a disk image, which I then loaded in AppleWin. But the emulated Apple IIe crashes, with this message:
0803- A=01 X=60 Y=00 P=75 S=F8

I am guessing the problem is within the binary object file I put into the disk image, but I'm not sure what. Any help please?

PC --> Tape --> Apple II disk

Submitted by scelbi8h on April 3, 2008 - 6:23am

Hi! I'm a new Apple II user from Spain. Recently I bought an Apple II Europlus, with 2 disk drives.

But unfortunately I have no idea of how I could copy programs from internet files to 5.25 disks...

My idea was to use a program like ADTpro to transfer games or applications to the computer by tape input, and later copy them into disks... don't know if it would be possible.

Any help?

I need a few recommendations......

A good friend was forced into retirement a few months back due to a nasty job related back injury. He is no longer able to pursue a lot of his favorite physical activities. We were talking one evening after he had been released from the hospital and I mentioned that I still messed around with my Apple II computers. He had been a big Apple fan twenty years back, but like many went on to other things. He thought it might be fun to start using an old Apple II again so I sent him a spare Apple IIc I had.

INIT problems

Submitted by marktbaldridge on March 25, 2008 - 3:48pm

Hello everyone,

My problem is very simple, but quite frustrating.

I am trying to format a new 5.25 disk in DOS 3.3. I do exactly as my DOS book says:

]NEW

]10 HOME

]20 PRINT "THIS DISK WAS CREATED BY MARK"

]30 END

]INIT HELLO, D2
(the drive whrrs for a minute)

I/O ERROR
]

And that's it! DOS just dumps me back at the prompt! Any ideas?

Thanks,
Mark Baldridge

Apple IIC

Submitted by jrwright621 on March 24, 2008 - 1:36pm

After making a multi state move I discovered my old IIc in a box while unpacking . It's working great . I bought a 3.5 unidisk off ebay before I found out that my IIC does not have the rom upgrade that will allow it to work . Anyone have any ideas on where I might be able to get a rom upgrade or a upgrade kit ?

Thanks

Trying to get started with my Apple II

Submitted by alexhanson on March 23, 2008 - 1:51am

Hello everyone. I'm afraid I'm at a roadblock in my relationship with the Apple II platform.

I have two Apple II systems that I have obtained. One is an Apple IIe, the other an Apple IIgs.
