I think you'll regret it ....but it will make somebody else very happy... |

how does that work then, does the tR have an additional timer in it at least? |

Yes, there is programmable timer on it. A1GT has also built in MIDI-timer, that can be used. |

I have a T-R GT with a memorymapper problem. It is expanded with a Sunrise 1Mb expantion kit, but it is faulty. I changed the SIMM with several different ones, but the same errors occure in TestMap: Stutter Bit no. 00 error stating: Swapping-, Address- or Refresh error on address 8000, block 00. I write 00, I read 03, Testmap can't continue, push space-bar........
So it is not very usefull: I have a Moonsound and VG... (eh, what was it again, for other graphics possibillity) and several Harddisk options (SCSI, IDE and CF) but I can only use these on a NMS8250 with 256Kb.
So, if someone can help me repair it, great! (I don't have parts, nor knolledge to do this)

I have TurboR GT, no mods, looks like new  I don't use it, because I don't wanna mess up the keyboard membrane.
I mostly use GT's elder sister - Panasonic WSX MSX2+ with 512K RAM. |

I have a GT for a few months now, but I only used it once (on a TV), to check if it was working. (and it was/is) Only thing is that I didn't know how to connect it to my philips MSX monitor, so since than I am using my 8280 again.
Ok, I have to use my FM-PAC and Memory expansion cartridge once in a while, but I can do everything I want with it.
As a child I always wanted a Turbo-R (but couldn't afford it). Now I have one, I'm not using it.  |
