    Both USB cables have to be connected, one for power, the other for data.

    As for chaco - there is an older precompiled binary of the commandline tool (chacocmd) in the public repository. You can of course also try to compile it from source. I cant…

    I am trying to flash the new V2 Amigacore but have two questions:

    1) I connected the TC64_v2 to my computer using the mini-usb cable on the chaco-connector on the back of the cartridge (left of the vga port). Do I have to supply power to the cartridge…

    It's the aca 500, it's not the plus, but it's from individual computers, I guess I'd buy it before you sold the plus.

    Is that the old ACA500 or the ACA500plus that you've bought there?

    pwsoft would have to look at the measurement values for the VIC chip. Just for completeness, can you record the values again when the chip is recognized properly?


    Warranty would not be affected if you solder on the board as per my instructions -…

    I was approached with the suggestion to port a TI99/4A core. I wonder if there is a vivid scene around that computer? I mean, it's an interesting architecture, a 16-bit processor@3MHz from the early 80s. I even found a demo, but are there notable games?

    Hi Jens ,

    Should I be worried about voiding my warranty with soldering? My friend is an excellent modder and can definitely help me with taking values and do SMD soldering work, but I did see you post elsewhere about people voiding their warranties…

    Good afternoon



    Recently I bought a friend 500 and came with aca500 but the seller told me that I had a problem with the aca, because the upside down and the spark in the part of the starting compact flash, from there when I chose…

    All pins in the Aux CF slot are fine - I always make sure to be very gentle with that.
    My gut feeling is also that something got overloaded by that active CF card ... too bad.

    By the by: the new one I ordered 2 days ago already arrived and is working…

    The unit XT1K+ is here and has been repaired under warranty on february 26th, 2019.

    Trouble is that you are not a direct customer - your contract is with our Polish reseller Eden Computery, not with us. We therefore will ship this unit back to Eden…

    For chip recognition to work properly, the input voltage must be really precise. Can you measure the 12V input when unloaded and when loaded (MK2 switched on)?

    No, the chameleon works entirely different - it cant just run random emulators, they have to be implemented as FPGA cores.

    Hi,

    As Retro gaming fan, I always look at running MAME games. RetroPie includes emulators for C64 (VICE) and MAME. I'm wondering if TC has enough power to run MAME. That would convert TC into the f*king killer Retro game system!!!

    Thoughts?

    Hi HansK,

    I´m also new to TCv2, and this is what I have done, and worked for me:

    1.- Load FinalCartridge_III.crt (or whatever your FC3 image name is) file from FileBrowser and put it in Cartridge SLOT1.
    2.- Go to main menu and press "1". This will…

    Hi Jens ,

    I'm having this issue. It looks to me like it's an overheating problem with the way the Reloaded MkII motherboard is interacting with the NTSC VIC-IIs or something like that. I've tried with multiple power supplies that I believe fit the…

    As already discussed via eMail, our QC photo shows that the CF slot was in perfect shape when shipped. I see your eMail of this morning as a confirmation that you broke the Boot slot, and there's nothing to worry about - we've done that kind of repair…

    First thing I'd check for would be a possible mechanical defect. Are all pins of the CF-slot still OK?
    The AUX slot has a power switch in it's power supply pins. Depending on how much power that adapter-in-adapter-with-active-card…
