Title: 6128 Plus Display
Post by: dcdrac on 10:21, 13 July 13

Ok 6128 plus has arrived I have a scart adapter for it, it powers on, I am awaiting a Burning Rubber with Locomotive Basic on it, I do have a GX400 cartridge but nothing seems to be getting outputted from the computer the TV does not pick up a signal on nay cartridge. The Computer does power on yes

So do I have to load up the Locomotive cartridge first before tryiny any other cartridge?
The Copy of Burning Rubber I have came with one of my GX4000s so I guess the BASIC might be different

Logically, there is no reason why the Burning rubber cartridge would not work.

If you have a pencil eraser, try cleaning the contacts.

Normal, if it's a GX cart; the GX didn't have any use for the BASIC part of the cartridge...

The burning rubber cartridge does not contain basic or firmware, the cartridge that normally came with the plus machine is different from the GX cartridge.
