Hi ... I'm French .... (don't go away)

Post by ccarl84 »

Hello,
I am ccarl84, a French Atari user.

My first Atari was a 520 STF which I had upgraded to 1 MB. Later I bought it: 1 HUGE 30 MB hard drive, 1 SUPERCHARGER, 1 external reader, 1 cartridge port clock. I tried the basics: Stos, GFA and Pascal.

Today I have a Mega STE in 4 Mo + cosmosex, several 520 ST, STF and STE. I would like to upgrade my Mega STE with more RAM and co-pro and VGA card.

ASAP

ccarl84

Bonjour,

Je suis ccarl84, un utilisateur d'Atari français.

Mon premier Atari était un 520 STF que j'avais fait upgrader à 1 Mo. Plus tard je lui ai acheté : 1 ENORME disque dur de 30 Mo, 1 SUPERCHARGER, 1 lecteur externe, 1 horloge sur port cartouche.

Je me suis essayé aux basics : Stos, GFA et au Pascal.
Aujourd'hui j'ai un Mega STE en 4 Mo + cosmosex, plusieurs 520 ST, STF et STE.

J'aimerais faire évoluer mon Mega STE avec plus de RAM et/ou coprocesseur et/ou carte video VGA.
à plus

I think the only Alt RAM card on sale today is the MonSTer? For GFX card you'll need a Nova adapter and fit an ET4000 ISA card.

I have read that some care needs to be made when using the two together because they both want the same address range.

The Monster Card looks good to me. I hesitate to take it for 1 STE or my Mega STE (many judges that we can get ONLY 6 MB and that we have to solder to fkeep the blitter) Opinions on the DBST1 project ?

For STe I would wait for TwiSTer (depending on the price)
