Re: Major Havoc fluke 9010a rom testing

Good info for a beginning Fluke user...
Makes sense that the watchdog kicks in if it isn't being reset continuously by a running processor....

So basically this is like bank- switching like f.i. the Atari 130XE does to access more RAM then normally possible ?

By the way where do you find the Quarterarcade scripts ? Searched the site but can't seem to find them...

Thanks, André
