Subject: Master 512 problems
Sorry this isn't directly related to our usual discussion:
I've just switched on my Master 512 after a few months break, and I'm
having a few problems with my sideways RAM.
*SREAD and *SWRITE no longer work, and give an 'illegal parameter' error.
However the SRAM paged ROM seems to be okay at a first glance (*HELP SRAM
works). The Master enhanced version of most of the games are okay - e.g.
Exile, unless they call *SWRITE etc. in a BASIC program, in which case I
get the error shown above.
Reading the clock also seems to produce some stange control
characters which break up the usual string format (is this related?)
Any ideas where I should start looking?
Cheers,
Neil
