[2017-07-16 20:07:49 CEST] Hi did you have a good time in greece? [2017-07-16 20:08:00 CEST] good news wirh the nu? [2017-07-16 20:08:08 CEST] with [2017-07-16 20:08:10 CEST] yes [2017-07-16 20:08:29 CEST] there was a small piece of wire stuck to bottom of PCB [2017-07-16 20:08:39 CEST] It looked like it should be thre [2017-07-16 20:08:57 CEST] But when I picked it off all started working great [2017-07-16 20:09:01 CEST] did you solder the nu? [2017-07-16 20:09:14 CEST] No it was loose [2017-07-16 20:09:25 CEST] just took it off [2017-07-16 20:09:53 CEST] but must have made contact enough to cause problems but not stop everything working [2017-07-16 20:10:17 CEST] did you get a nu-kit or a ready nu? [2017-07-16 20:10:38 CEST] As a kit, I built it [2017-07-16 20:10:52 CEST] which explains why it had problems [2017-07-16 20:11:00 CEST] The menu screen would load OK [2017-07-16 20:11:02 CEST] where did the wire come from? [2017-07-16 20:11:12 CEST] but the screen broke up when I took ZX81 [2017-07-16 20:11:45 CEST] can you choose the zx80? [2017-07-16 20:11:52 CEST] no idea, it must have stuck when i was doing something. As i said, it looked perfectly in place [2017-07-16 20:11:59 CEST] yes, both work [2017-07-16 20:12:08 CEST] unfortunately H4th doesnt [2017-07-16 20:12:10 CEST] and h4th? [2017-07-16 20:12:21 CEST] No, not yet [2017-07-16 20:12:27 CEST] what ram do you have? [2017-07-16 20:12:41 CEST] 32k? [2017-07-16 20:12:54 CEST] 64K? Im sure is shows 56k available [2017-07-16 20:13:15 CEST] therefore h4th dooes not run. [2017-07-16 20:13:32 CEST] 64K stops it? [2017-07-16 20:13:37 CEST] change the ram to 32k. [2017-07-16 20:13:42 CEST] yes. [2017-07-16 20:13:47 CEST] it stops. [2017-07-16 20:13:50 CEST] OK, why is 64 a problem [2017-07-16 20:14:09 CEST] I think I can try that tomorrow [2017-07-16 20:14:12 CEST] even holmatic does not know why. [2017-07-16 20:14:36 CEST] Good, Id like h4Th to run [2017-07-16 20:15:03 CEST] also bokje was reflcting about that. but no result. [2017-07-16 20:15:21 CEST] I found an easy way to use 27C128 roms on standard ZX81 [2017-07-16 20:15:30 CEST] no cutting of the PCB [2017-07-16 20:15:53 CEST] how? [2017-07-16 20:16:12 CEST] do you use an additional socket? [2017-07-16 20:16:17 CEST] Using a small piece of perf board and some header pins [2017-07-16 20:16:52 CEST] The 27C128 goes on top. A few pins are rewired and the headers are put on bottom [2017-07-16 20:17:00 CEST] to plug into the ROM socket [2017-07-16 20:17:10 CEST] send a picture. [2017-07-16 20:17:15 CEST] you can even add a jumper to choose between two roms [2017-07-16 20:17:26 CEST] hold on and I'll send the links [2017-07-16 20:19:34 CEST] Cant find it just now, will do later [2017-07-16 20:19:59 CEST] did you findd my picture? [2017-07-16 20:20:25 CEST] Which one? The mods for the ROM & RAM? [2017-07-16 20:20:29 CEST] Yes got that one [2017-07-16 20:21:16 CEST] the long wire has to be joined with a diode. [2017-07-16 20:21:39 CEST] diode d1, kathode [2017-07-16 20:22:21 CEST] OK, thats to ensure volts go in one direction [2017-07-16 20:22:47 CEST] no, it is the connection to address a11. [2017-07-16 20:24:01 CEST] looking now [2017-07-16 20:24:07 CEST] by the way,#the greek wedding was nice. [2017-07-16 20:24:42 CEST] good food. nice peoples, about 100.

[2017-07-16 20:27:48 CEST] just a pencil to hold the socket in a good position for makkinng the picture. [2017-07-16 20:28:01 CEST] making [2017-07-16 20:28:36 CEST] after the wedding we spend some days at the beach. [2017-07-16 20:29:13 CEST] the papa nero. look to google earth.
