I changed the MyIDE rom for the normal XEGS ROM back in/River Raid,and /Atari basic rev'c', because I got tired of not being able to use Turbobasic with the MyIDE setup. But I still can't use Turbobasic with the new setup. Would there be anything that you can think of with this internal OS to lock out Turbobasic.. 'Loads to the ready prompt and then crashes..........needs a restart to get back to MyDos or Spartados boot disk.'

Using the new Beta SDX driver by 'fjc' at www.atariage.com 8bit forum. New beta SDX rom on Flashcart but Turbobasic still crashes on the XEGS, but not with my 1200XL or 600xl.
TIA
for any info..

How much RAM do you have on these machines?

XEGS 130K Compatible upgrade 'by Classics' / INTERNAL MYIDE 'by Classics' external flashcart 1Mb

600 XL /CITRAD 320K PLUGIN upgrade / MYIDEFLASHCART 'by Classics' MyIDE works good on this one.

800 XL /192K UPGRADE. Peterson upgrade I believe. MyIDE works good on this one.

1200xl /256k upgrade 'by Classics' w/ 32n1 OS -- MyIDEFlashcart works good on this one.

the XEGS is the only one I have this problem with.. The Last Word 3.2 works great 8) 'love it' 8)

Yep. I think SDX isn't using "BANKED" by default on the XEGS with just 128K of RAM. The Last Word and TB both need SDX to reside in banked memory. I think a "USE BANKED" is required here in CONFIG.SYS on CAR:. I can add this in the next beta if you want.

Can you check this is the case for me with the "MEM" command in SDX?
