Re: Commander - Help!

I've tried Commander 1.1 I think, and 1.8 and none work. I do have an Issue 2 Zeddy and could try with that. Shame as I really enjoy using the old one and I am going to keep that motherboard with the genuine Zilog Z80, March 1981 ULA and klutzed ROM as it left the factory. I've switched to my older ...

Re: Commander - Help!

Oh yes I removed it as soon as the firmware updated successfully.

Does it matter that my Zeddy is issue 1 with the unpatched ROM, and my ZXPand is several years old?

Re: Commander - Help!

I dug out a 4Gb micro SD card that I used to use with a phone, and a full size adapter. Formatted that as FAT32 and I still have the same issue. The ZXPand is reading the card, I can navigate using the ZXPand BASIC commands but Commander isn't working. I even ensured that I downloaded Commander agai...

Re: Commander - Help!

Thanks for the reply! I just tried formatting a different 128Mb SD card with a dedicated formatting program, and Commander still behaves the same way. I copied a few .P files and a couple of directories over to the SD card too. Commander loads, I get an OK dialogue box then the two windows. I can mo...

Re: Commander - Help!

Additionally I have tried making a new directory which appears to go OK....I am prompted to name it and when I press Newline an "OK" dialogue box pops up....but there's no new directory created. I am using an old small capacity 16Mb SD card, which works fine with the BASIC commands. Issue 1 Zeddy wi...

Commander - Help!

I have finally got round to updating the firmware on my ZXPand and the boot screen now proudly says "Version 2.62 TROLL". So I decided to try ZXPand Commander to more easily navigate the SD card. It loads up and I can access the help page but the windows are empty, no "..", no files, no directories....

Re: Introducing me

Hello! I just thought I'd pop in again regarding my elderly ZX81. I obtained another more recent model in 2014 so I've kind of kept this older one wrapped in cotton wool...but as she's approaching her 40th birthday I've got her out again and she's still working! Klutzed ROM and ancient ULA all doing...
