Yes, there is flash software and ROM image for VIC!

But is it the only difference with PET and floppy (the software) ?

There is no hardware specificity ?

When I connect a working floppy drive or a SD2IEC device to one of my VICs, it is not detected,
I have a "device not found" message if I try a : load"$",8
like if the serial bus was faulty.

Is there a typical reason for this kind of issue ?

Thanks.

Hi,

As written in the title, I have a VIC20 with a 2 prong connector which came without PSU.

If you have a useless 2 prong power supply, let me know

Thanks.

oops, yes it requires 24k
3 sprites pre-shifted (horizontally and vertically)= 3*64 = 192 different sprites in memory

maybe I should try to only shift the sprites horizontally

Hi, I'm aware of the vic-sss library, but I wanted to create my own routine (and I don't like CA65, I prefer ACME :lol: ), you can download the prg here : http://majikeyric.free.fr/cbm/sprites.prg It requires a 24K extension because all the sprites are pre-shifted in memory (at runtime), it takes a ...

I tried with a new class 10 SD card and it works flawlessly

Yes the original tape loads correctly with same datassette.
I wanted to have confirmation that the SD card was faulty (I have to buy a new one )
Thanks!

Thanks, I have sent it to your hotmail account.

A sandisk ultra II 2Gb, I don't know the speed but it is a old card.

I grabbed successfully a tape with MENUVIC or the direct command : OPEN15,8,15,”XF2:TEST.TAP”:CLOSE15. But when I try loading the TAP file,...

Does the same VIC20 power supply can be used with a 25 Watts VIC20 and a 15 Watts VIC20 ?
