Hi

Just wondering how you load & run the Mirage Imager ROM in WinAPE? Doesn't appear to have an RSX. Hackit etc work fine but I can't get this to work. Do I just need to call the relevant jumpblock address..?

Thanks

Perhaps the hardware is special and it's not been implemented in winape?

EDIT: Yes the hardware has it's own ROM and RAM.
EDIT: The ROM contents don't appear to be normal z80 instructions, it seems it may be encrypted or scrambled or a bad dump.....?

There's no reason for the address lines and data lines to be wired up as you'd expect... Quite often people will swap these lines round if it makes a PCB easier to route.

So... can somebody read the ROM again using the CPC (Maxam for example)?
Then you can compare.

That aside, the MF2 is imho superior to the MI.

It is a good suggestion and I agree completely that MF2 is the best.
