AppleWin: mouse emulation?

Hi!  I have the AppleWin emulator and want it to emulate a mouse as a mouse rather than a joystick.  How do I do that?

Extracted Apple II wav sounds

Submitted by mikeryan on February 27, 2026 - 12:11pm

Hey all!

 

I'm trying to obtain authentic Apple II sounds (simple clicks, beeps, etc) in wav file format to use for a film project.  I have done some searching already but have really only found the apple ii startup chime.  Main goal would be to obtain 5 (or 10 if there were 10) of the top common sounds (in wav) from an Apple II.  If anyone knows where I could find these, or if it is easy to extract and send to me, I would greatly appreciate the help!

Is there a way to test the IWM on the Apple IIc+ Motherboard?

Submitted by tiktok4321 on February 25, 2026 - 9:54am

I've posted this question in the Apple II Enthusiat's group on Facebook, but I haven't had a ton of luck with the reponses - even from the experts.  I'm hoping to get some solid answers before anyone pulls out the soldering iron.

SmartDiskII Interface (by BTB) Troubles with my DIY built card

Submitted by 2eSteve on February 20, 2026 - 8:57am

Hello All,

Sorry if this sounds like a stupid question but I am very new to burning (?) EPROMS so I think this is where my issues are coming from .

Background

I have seen a few topics on here regarding this excellent project and the fact that I could get the parts here in the UK and have the PCBs made (PCBway) I thought I would have a go.

I am fairly good with a soldering iron (or at least I should be having done it for many years) but its the P6 EPROM that I think I have messed up as in, not sure what I am meant to do.

Hello all,

 

I am looking for Crosstalk for Apple CP/M. Does anyone know where I can find the dsk image? The usual suspects (asimov, archive.org) returned nothing.

 

Thanks,

Could you make a new Apple IIe compatible from modern components?

Submitted by nrrd on February 11, 2026 - 4:29pm

This has probably been discussed ad-nauseum, but would it be possible to create a new Apple IIe using truly modern and currently available components?  Rather than a true replica, something that is compatible.

By this, I mean:

WDC 65C02

FPGA or CPLD for IOU and MMU

SRAM rather than DRAM

Flash NOR rather than EPROM / ROM

VGA output using a system similar to the Apple-II-VGA card

Compact flash or SD Card for storage

Potential to overclock to 8, 12 or 16MHz

If such a system was built, would it be compatible with existing software?

SoftSP card and daisy-chaining

Submitted by colinleroy on February 7, 2026 - 12:20pm

Hello,

I'm progressing in testing my new daisy-chainable device on various configurations. I face issues with a DIY SoftSP card (in conjunction with a 655-0101 IO Controller). 

The first one is that I had to add a patch to make sure the packet start byte 0xC3 is where we expect it. There is an extra sync byte from the SoftSP, which is not there on IIc (ROM3 and ROM4x) nor on IIgs (ROM01). 

 

Once that patch was in, the SoftSP works in some ways:
