Title: EMU II+ HxC won't load HFE files Post by: n82558 on August 04, 2013, 10:11:22 PM Hi everyone,
I have an Emulator II that I just finished repairing and I installed an HxC rev F. I followed all the directions but the EMU just won't load my .hfe files. I have a few different images on the SD card and none of them work. I have some that are only firmware files, one that I converted myself from an emuiifd file with an OS overlay in the hxc software, and one that I downloaded from a forum where someone converted a file to help another user solve a problem that sounds like the one I'm having. If I have the HxC as the only drive in the EMU it just says insert diskette, and if I boot on a floppy and then try to load from the Hxc I get a message that says "INSERT PERF DISK AND PRESS ENTER'. I've tried different jumper settings and everything else and I still don't have any luck. Anyone have advice for me? Do I have a defective HxC?

Title: Re: EMU II+ HxC won't load HFE files Post by: esynthesist on October 20, 2013, 01:55:16 PM A while ago I have written a quite extensive document about using the HxC in an Emu Emulator-I and Emulator-II.
This document was written before the release of version F of the SD HxC, but I guess there's no difference regarding the cabling, configuration and jumper settings. I will update it once I have ordered and received a rev F - for now I hope you can find solutions in it for the problems you have. http://www.emxp.net/HxC_for_EmuI_and_EmuII_v1_1.zip Title: Re: EMU II+ HxC won't load HFE files Post by: micromoog on October 20, 2013, 09:27:39 PM thank you very much for the instruction.
Now i have a little success By switching on the EII the "emu... .emuiifd" will load. if i choose anyother hfe-file to load, the eii edisplays "disk not ready" Any idea? Title: Re: EMU II+ HxC won't load HFE files Post by: micromoog on October 21, 2013, 03:05:38 PM OK, problem is solved!!!
the reason was the emuiios.emuiifd file from the HxC-Zip from HxC2001-Forum. Made my own file and now it works all fine |
