Yes the card has just arrived, so a quick snooze for an hour and then I'll be plugging it in.
The new CD-ROM gear arrived as well as the controller, so got my fingers crossed.

I'll work on the CD drive next but happy that my guess of the light blue screen meant unable to read or no HuCard present.

The second but if news is that the CD drive also works but has a spindle height issue, so that will need to wait until I have a CD to try in it (no rush) and I suspect it needs a CD HuCard, which hopefully with the SD solution arriving soon, will sort that out.

If you need any of the CD HuCards, I have a bunch of them that work with my SD card solution, just shout.
I think the spindle height was a fairly common issue, at least on the Duo R. Just be careful as it's a press fit on the motor and a pain to move even a little bit.
How are you enjoying R-Type?
