From George Valnin To All 8 September 2000

Hello, All!

My demo with CC000 from Real Masters stops (the music loops) with
the flickering inscription "Real Masters Group"...
Pentagon 128 computer...
Downloaded the demo from zx-museum.org... Does anyone have this demo working?

Regards, George aka -=GPV=-.

You must definitely perform the “reformat disk” option.
Otherwise it simply won’t read the disk.
(All subsequent copies, of course, also need to be reformatted :)).

I did it, of course. Otherwise, how would I have reached the flickering inscription? :)

By the way, during the first boot, some
byte appears in the upper left corner... maybe my version is buggy? (www.zx-museum.org.ru)

Press RESET immediately, George!

But it didn’t load for me until I killed some attempt to read from the disk
a sector with number >=64... And it also goes in cycles, only there are some
numbers still crawling across the screen all the time! :-/

I got it from there, and also Pentagon-128.
After the reformat, my subject runs safely to the end.
Without the reformat, the drive head moves back and forth, and that’s all.
Maybe you just have a disk error? Try dropping
trd again to another real disk and repeat the process.

Yes, it’s buggy like that in all emulators.
