8K or 16K?

[Mikey_C]

Hi guys (& gals)

I used to know this a Loooooooong time ago, but I can't remember now.

So, If you load an 8k expanded game into 16k should it work? I ask because I just got Bonzo by Audiogenic on tape and it crashes upon loading
I only have a 16k expander.

Cheers

Mike

the vic 20 recognize at startup 3 possibility:
1) default memory asset
2) +3k (low basic) ram expansion
3) contiguous ram expansion from first 8K expandable ram (8,16,24K)

so if the game need a 8k expansion ram it can be loaded into a 8k or 16k or 24k expanded VIC20....

Cheers fella. Thanks for reminding me.

As it happens the problem was the cassette was too tight, luckily it had screws, untightening, rewind/forward a couple of times sorted out the problem.

But thanks for the reminder
