Thank you @poulette73, it's very clear now. Hope it will be possible in the 5 next years at least

Do you have links to the pcbs? Component list? I am sure we could produce a batch from JLCPCB or something?

Possible replacement : Backbit Pro

And you need to take of course the CPC+ adapter

If you made the effort to read the previous page, you would have already had the answer.

Question on the C4CPC....I (luckily) managed to buy one last year from Gerald. However, if I recall he asked me if it would be used on a CPC Plus or a GX4000....

My question is, can I use my C4CPC on both machines? Or is it one or the other? If both, what's the difference? Do I need to use a different SD card layout for GX4000 compared to CPC Plus? I've read the user guide, but I honestly find it confusing, so I'd really appreciate any help

It works on both, but there are warnings about using it on a GX with the original power supply, as it can cause damage.

Hey guys,

Is Gerald interested in allowing access to his design, firmware, BOM and schematics?

I could pay him a royalty or licence fee to get this going again.

Probably not. No response to my PM about if any spare PCB or getting one made up from Gerber. Not difficult to replicate but also need the XC95144XL JED which would hold the noca$h code for ACID unlock plus prob memory mapped access to the flash/Atmel on there. Unsure if that is locked without getting hold of one myself to play with. Using M4 at the moment but it has issues with quite a few 512k ROM images so stuck with noca$h reflash carts for those
CPC464/GT64, CPC464 Plus/CTM640, 2 x CPC6128/CTM644

Non, et il a déjà répondu à ce sujet.


No, and he has already responded to this subject.

Not C4CPC return in its actual form due to skyrocket price of the component and the obsolescence of the PLD.
A new version is in the pipe, but will be ready when it's ready  ;D

Feels like you're just making some hundred users very lucky by posting this news.  ;D

The two devices I got from you still work like a charm - and it's great to be able to use them.  :)

Quote from: gerald on 16:41, 25 February 24Le C4CPC ne revient pas sous sa forme actuelle en raison de la flambée du prix du composant et de l'obsolescence du PLD.
Une nouvelle version est en préparation, mais sera prête quand elle sera prête  ;D
Un grand Merci Gerald !!!!!!!
Premmmmms sur la nouvelle liste d'attente  :) :) :) :)

Hooray! Incredible news. I have a GX4000 here waiting patiently for when the day comes. All the way from the UK since they never sold them here (for obvious reasons).

Effectivement! C'est une bonne nouvelle !👍
Gérald m'avait confié n'avoir plus le temps de s'y remettre.

Du coup, je me positionne aussi dans la liste !
Cela fait tellement longtemps que j'en cherche une...

Hello, can anyone direct me on how and where to purchase a C4CPC?

c4cpc is no longer in production. you have to find one on the second hand market. we are many like you to want one.
