Today at the MSX clubday in Marienberg the weirdest thing happened to my Sunrise CF interface;
Al of a sudden is only works when in a slotexpander or when not in a TurboR.
so it works in a "normal" cartridge slot on a philips
but not in a "normal" carridge slot of a Turbor (ST/GT)
but when inserted in a slotexpander (Gouda 5.0) the CF works
its not the CF cards
Its not the Slot on the Turbor (since we tried several computers)

the IDEfload program doesnt detect the CF anymore on a turbor
and when inserted in a slotexpander the IDEfload programm says there is a failure in the flashrom

anyone knows whats going on here??

and if you flash it again ? Maybe a small part of the software is corrupted?

did you download it again (fresh rom file.) Maybe your rom file is corrupted.?
You can fill in slot number in IDEfload to force the flash ?

In the past I had my MP3 player need flash again, because it no longer did.
On a Turbo R also gave this a error, but with a MSX2 (Sony HB-F700P) went
the well good. Perhaps the turbo R maybe for this was too fast.
Maybe you have something here.

that's a very good advice MSX4ever!
OeiOeiVogeltje; Yes, try to flash it on another machine instead of on a Turbo-R
(we didn't try that on the MVM clubday)

Or just flash in Z80 mode on Turbo-R which I did in the past for both MP3 player and CF interface. My CF interface also didn't work at first and after flashing the right ROM file it worked again. I don't have the CF interface anymore, but I do have the files somewhere on my HDD... Anyway, good luck!

I am totally insane try for instance cuneiforme writing bit for bit
If it's on a socket next meeting i could come with an multi programmer
just bring an spare flashrom and file and solderiron
