9100 software upgrade to rv6.0
by John Robertson 10 Nov '02

10 Nov '02

I was doing some digging through the software on the two upgrade ROMs (included in the 40MEG upgrade kit) and find that it appears the 9100 can be modified to support up to 16MB of on-board RAM. Interesting....but unaccessible currently...at least until we crack the NVRAM checksum... John :-#)#

Has anyone built any programs to do Dynamic Ram test for either the 9010 or 9100? I'm looking for something that would cover 4116 &/or 4164s. Thanks, Kev

Re: Anyone Host A WMS Manual for me?

Will Al host it? I have (AFAIK) unlimited space that I should be able to share if I ever get around to asking for some more FTP accts... I guess that manual was pretty much only released to distributors.. I grabbed one out of the files at Mountain Coin a year or so ago and thats the first I've heard of it..

I've got a Williams manual covering the theory of Z Unit boards on loan from one of the WMS employees. I've scanned it to a PDF file of about 10 Megs but I may be able to get that down a bit with capturing text.

9105A
by Amplifone＠aol.com 05 Nov '02

05 Nov '02

I just picked one of these up and plugged it in earlier today.. This is the 9100A without a fixed disk, just 2 floppys. I have a few sets of software on floppy from my 9100As but it seems the 9105 wants software that is encoded with the serial number of the unit.. Anybody know more about these? Easy to add an HD perhaps? I would probably be willing to let it go.. It has a video card so It seems its still full featured and can run editor. Pardon me but I just subscribed to this list again after being away for a year or so.. I hear there is lots of 9100A activity going on now.. What kinda scripts have you guys been working on? (and where might I find them?) anything that utilizes I/O pods? Thx, Jeff

Williams System 7 Memory Map
by Dave Langley 04 Nov '02

04 Nov '02

Hi ... I'm working on a set of boards for a Joust ( System 7) pinball, and I was wondering is anyone had a memory map of the CPU board? I want to connect it to my Fluke 9010 and the map will save me the trouble (and more importantly, time) of working it out myself. ;o) Thanks in advance for any help given!

I've uploaded a few things of interest, (Atari CAT BOX files - including the Z8002 pod schematics and PROM info!) plus updated the Fluke DPFs with a few new ones, including the Tape Backup for the 9100 plus info on using Version 6 of the 9100 software.
