Patch the system without modifying the system file? Absolutely. You can alter the vectors in RAM, for example.

My GS has a TransWarp, an AI InnerDrive and a GG Labs 8MB RAM card. Thinking about a proper SCSI card or network, though. https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2020/11/not-refurb-weekend-apple-iigs.html https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2021/02/the-quest-for-wolfenstein-3d-music-on.html

The KIM-1 was the first 6502-based computer, with 1K (actually 1152 bytes) of RAM and a 1MHz clock speed. It has serial routines, but the DECtalk Express it's connected to as a speech synthesizer (using Perfect Paul, which famously was the basis for Professor Hawking's voice) only talks at...

Probably the best approach, but what about the card wasn't working with the 8500 extension not loaded?

It looks like you have all the necessary extensions. While the 8500 extension shouldn't make you crash, you can just disable it and the card should still work fine.

What ATI extensions do you have on the system, exactly?

Nicely done!

Yes, please.

In addition to an AmigaOS with ixemul port, you can now use carl, a mini-curl clone, as an MPW tool for TLS 1.3 from classic Mac OS. It compiles with MrC. More here: https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2023/04/crypto-ancienne-22-now-supported-on.html Next step is to make an inetd clone that can run MPW...

Great detective work. Glad another system is restored to function.

Can we merge this with the other thread?

I'd just use one of the WiFi game adapter boxes.

I use a Twin Turbo in my 6500, but for a specific purpose: it's 2D accelerated in BeOS, which is its primary OS. My TAM just uses the onboard Rage.

ISTR (perhaps trag can elucidate) that there is some issue with cards with PCI-PCI bridges and the 6400/6500. That said, my TAM had a Sonnet combo USB-FW card in it and the TAM is basically a 6500, so I can recommend one of those.

I think they used the plastic from an Alcon container. I agree this is a homebrew device.

That's all I got. You've stumped me on this one.

I like what you're trying to do with Vision BASIC, and I'm sure for more modern users looking back it's a smooth way to start playing with the platform and doing "stuff." For me, though, I had a C64 in 1984 and I rapidly hit the limitations of things like Toolkit BASIC back in the day, and the...

Very nice! I wrote a Wordle-alike for the 1K KIM-1: https://oldvcr.blogspot.com/2022/02/kimdle-sorta-wordle-for-kim-1.html

He also did a lot of work for Accolade. The C64 theme music for HardBall! was written by him.

For the runs and runs part, my 64 service manual suggests checking the 7408 at U8 (and, of course, CIA #2 - always possible you have a double failure, though that wouldn't be my first guess). However, that doesn't explain the rest of what you're seeing, so I'm out of ideas.
