Re: QL mini trump 3 card

No problems and thanks for the design. I wish that I could get the other 2 pals to work to address the RAM, but I guess that I'll settle with your V3 card and one of the RAM cards too.

Anyway, floppy images. How do I go about creating ones for a Gotek drive? Would that be with an emulator? I'm ...

Re: QL mini trump 3 card

Re: Wim file creation itility

Thanks for that, I'll take a look at both suggestions. I do have Qemulator but I have to register that to use WIN files, and to be honest it's a bit pricy😖 to register.

Re: Announcing the new "Gold Card" - QIMSI Gold

I could post you one but the postage from the UK to Germany is quite expensive at about £10-£15 including packaging. PM me if you are interested.

Re: Announcing the new "Gold Card" - QIMSI Gold

Nice one you should push in the port cover more. It's tight but fits nicely and stops the PCB pushing out when clipped in.
