hi,
Does someone have any idea what "Turbo Booster" is? It's a program for MSXturboR, but I have never heard of it and I wondered if someone can tell me more about it... See http://www.generation-msx.nl/msxdb/softwareinfo/1767
(It seems some kind of tool to boot more quickly... but I think it already is quite quick on turboR...) |

Quite pointless to boot even quicker in the turboR  |

I now think that it is a tool to boot games faster. Maybe it even uses the RAM of the turboR to form a kind of disk cache. If you can read Japanese, check the new photo material on the above GenMSX link! (Thanks to rklok!)

My Turbo-R GT boots quite slowly compared to my other msx2 computers, it takes about 10-12 seconds from the time the MSX2 logo appears until it reaches the basic prompt.
Are there settings I can change (maybe msxview related?) to speed this up?

As long as a screen shot is seen, it is visible to the tool which starts the software for MSX2(Z80) in the high-speed(R800) mode of turboR.

the boot of the Turbo-R GT is fast if the second drive is connected ;-)
