FDC cookie
Does anyone know how to set the FDC cookie to enable HD format option in GEM ? There's a hint there was a FDC.PRG to do it but Google doesn't find much at all relating to it

Just because a lot of people agree on something, doesn't make it a fact. ~exxos ~

Re: FDC cookie
Search for HDCOOKIE.PRG + ATARI via Google. Documentation for the _FDC content can be found here: http://toshyp.atari.org/en/003007.html

Re: FDC cookie
Thanks - I also found a few other PRGs on the Floppy Shop 5592 disk that allows me to play around with other cookies
Their version is HD_FDC.PRG - https://www.planetemu.net/rom/atari-st- ... floppyshop

Re: FDC cookie
Do any of them give you the HD format option in 206 tho ?

Re: FDC cookie
They create the _FDC cookie and as "_" is used for OS cookies, the OS uses this and adds the HD option in the format dialog, if the _FDC content is set properly. Check with a debugger/monitor program, if necessary ...
Re: FDC cookie
H4 with the 1.44HD GAL running Flashy Clock V3 to get TOS206 and HD_FDC.PRG to set the _FDC cookie.
Re: FDC cookie
That's something else to cross off the list then, nice one
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Re: FDC cookie
@Icky Tried his flashy board with the same register patches and it does not work for him either, so I guess the good news is my board seems to be working correctly.
So it seems just accessing that register is just not enough for some reason it could be that TOS206 is at some point checking for a STE machine before it starts checking other things
EDIT:
I tried scoping out that register to see if it was even being accessed, and it does not look like it , so anyone's guess to why this doesn't work then..
