Greetings,
I'm currently trying to reset my Dandanator Mini after I have loaded the game "swords of ianna".
Allthough I have followd the instructions in the video of Amstrad Noob, I cannot connect to my CPC.
Has anyone an idea what the issue might be?

I have tested with V2.5 of the Dandanator tool.

Thanks

Getting back to the loader screen may vary by which Cart was last uploaded. You may have to do some experimenting.  My notes on this. The Dandare website lists some methods of recovery too

The option #2 for resetting as described on the Dandare website worked great  ;)

Thanks again ...
