DiagROM for ST

Re: DiagROM for ST
Hi ac3, I have been attempting to get DiagRAM to run on any ST or MEGA's and to date I have been unsuccesful (Guess it doesn't like me or my atari's, could I'm challenged?). Depending on your skill level the atari diagnostics cart may help you out. The knock on it is it has to go through a few instructions in your TOS to get to the diagnostics cart which shouldn't be a issue in your situation since you get to the desktop. It has an ok memory test and some additional tests.Even more if you have the wrap cables and test board. Exxos's store has it for sale but I don't recall if there any available.
Re: DiagROM for ST
It does work on the ST as I tried it out myself...
As for diagnostic carts, still WIP.. waiting for china to open up so I can order my new PCB's...

Re: DiagROM for ST
Hmm, makes me think I'm getting soft in the melon..Tried it in 2 mega's and a ST. All three booting no issue 1.04. Run the atari DiagROM cart first to insure I have no issues with serial...?
I don't need to hold down a key or something?

Re: DiagROM for ST
hmmm, I've not tried the cart version yet I think... You may be better replacing the OS ROM's with Diagrom, its how I did it.

Re: DiagROM for ST
No key is needed to boot DiagROM from a cart.

Re: DiagROM for ST
Not using a cart, using it as the boot rom. Took out the tos rom and put in DiagROM, applied power gray screen, no serial.. same all computers.
Re: DiagROM for ST
Maybe your programmer is byte swapping the ROMs ?

Re: DiagROM for ST
STE? or ST?
Anyways I have tested the 256K version in a real machine. I havent tested the 192K version in a real machine. So you might need to resplit the roms.

Re: DiagROM for ST
Checked the burn in the 16 bit eprom and all the text is readable so its not byte reversed.. This has to be something stupid!!
Re: DiagROM for ST
Post the file here and I will byteswap it for you if needs be.
