Kidding about the money part, although that doesn't mean I won't accept money. Like to get my bony hands on! Ooops! Forgot to mention the Compaq Presario 425!).

It's got a system that will stomp itīut the blessed Japanese folks were the only ones who got ahold of this Especially since it's got FM audio + ADPCM. You probably know that one of its major strong points were two sound chipsĪnd as with any computer worth buying, if you're into composing music, then ( that didn't keep people from flocking to purchase one ). It was powerful, beautiful, and maybe even a tad expensive X68kFDDemul.gif (21.So, you've been enlighted with the knowledge of a little machine called the To workaround this problem I used a simply circuit made by kitahei88 (credits to him) with emulates two of the X68000 signals (DISK IN and FDD INT), see picture attached.It works pretty well on all games, the only game which gave me trouble is Valis II (neither kitahei88 understood why).If you look at the circuit there are two switches and two led for each FDD drives.When you press the switch you communicate to machine host that a disk has been inserted generating a DISK IN output signal (after this you can mount images on HxC) so the led will stay ON until an interrupt is generated by the host (the auto-eject X68000 feature).It's not immediate but it works, I implemented this on my CompactXVI along with HxC SD floppy emulator and I'm happy of it (though a custom FDD cable was required)
Hi, most of X68000 games will not properly work with HxC floppy emulator due the lack of some X68000 proprietary FDD signals.I get same behaviour of you, reading will stop at track 4.Sometimes you have to wait some minutes and then track reading will go on but this is not valid for all games.
