Tokra is correct. You will need to load a cartridge image from a storage device (disk, tape, uIEC) into RAM. I have a uIEC/SD. Here's how I use it to play cartridge games.retromodder wrote:How do i load from a cartridge and then play from RAM?
1. On my PC, I download cartridge images from zimmers or elsewhere and store them on an SD card.
2. Make sure the VIC is powered off.
3. Attach the uIEC to the VIC (if necessary) and insert the SD card.
4. Set the RAM expansion to 32K mode. See this document for how to set 32K mode. And install the RAM into the cartridge slot.
5. Turn everything on and at the READY prompt, load a cartridge image. LOAD "SOMEGAME",10,1
6. When the game is loaded, it should return saying READY. Press the reset button on the RAM expansion to start the game.
Hope that helps get you started.
Cheers!
