Hello to all, My name is Max and I am from Italy. Sorry for my english but I would buy myide for my Atari XEGS. I read about 20 pin connection, is it too difficult to set up it to use with compact flash ide adapter + compact flash? Do I need other pieces of hardware or is it all? Thanks in advance to anyone can help me. Max |

Hi Max, No problem, your English is fine. I'm from the Netherlands and have the same problems sometimes ![]() The easiest way is the MyIDE+flash cartridge. That works nicely with a female-ide-to-cf adapter (search on -international- ebay on these words. You find them for less then 2 euro) and CF-cards. The internal MyIDE+flashBIOS needs you to desolder the OS-rom, solder in a socket and place the interface. Not recommended for unexperienced users....... Works also great with a CF-setup. Later, Sijmen. |

Hi Sijmen, thanks for your answer. I'm going to buy one external cartdrige. Last question, with this configuration (Myide + flash + compact flash ide adapter + compact flash), must I have to set up pin 20 or must I leave untounched? Max P.s thanks for saying my good "English", yours is good too ![]() |

Hi Max, Pin 20 in the cartridge is already connected to the 5 volt power-line. The female IDE-to-CF adapter will use this to power the CF-card. Later, Sijmen. |

Hi Sijmen, Good, I hope just I don't have trouble with software. As always, thanks a lot. Max |
