Tashkent city (code 371)
I have had a Spectrum somewhere since 1990 (more precisely, me and my older brother, Sergei).
It was a Spectrum 48k with a tape recorder.
Later, its place was taken by the same one but with a disk drive. Then our next
The computer was Tashkent-128k, which was later expanded to 512k. On
At the moment we have a computer:
ZX-Profi 4096k RAM + 32k (Cash or ROM Emulator) / 260M HDD (own
connection diagram) / 5'25 FDD x2 / AY8910 / Kempston Mouse / Vicomm Modem /
Printer CM6337.
Now my brother is developing a new firmware with support for the screw. On
The following additional commands have now been implemented:
*"i" - launching IS-DOS from the hard drive.
*"r" - connecting the ramdisk to the current logical address (A, B, C or D),
that is, it is possible to include, say, a ramdisk instead of a disk drive, or
Winchester and vice versa.
*"hNN" connects the hard drive to the current log. address with number
TRD on it (NN - TRD number)
When reset, current settings are saved in the CMOS or in the last page
top computer memory.
As a result, we have the ability to boot from both a floppy drive and a ramdisk orWinchester. The only problem is the pipe loaders, because... via #3D13 they don't
are working. By the way, loading from the screw via #3D13 is very fast. In FIDO somehow
information flew by that one person made the firmware with full
emulation of VG, as a result it became possible to work with pipe loaders
in ramdisk. The firmware, as described there, was made for KAY1024.
I would like to know more about her, maybe she could help decide
pipeloader problem.
In the future, it is planned to re-wire the controller circuit in Picad and throw it into
masses along with the firmware. This will be either in the next issue of WALLPAPER
(our online newspaper, extremely irregular) or separately.
In general, we feel some kind of information vacuum in Tashkent, let’s stew
in its own juice. Many people don't even know what Spectrum is. From
Spectrumistically, many either left or switched to the IBM PC. But there is more
people who are not indifferent to Spectrum, but feel this informational
hunger, and no one has the Internet, and as a result ZX-NET. In general, this is me
then it is advisable, of course, to reserve the opportunity to type
points
