Atari 800XL Track & Field Does Not Work?

Unread post by emuola »

Running the latest version and tried with .atr and .xex. The game seems to load, but ends up with black screen and stays there no matter what

Any ideas, how to get that running?

Thanks!

Mount the disk, quit OSD, hold F8 and press F10. It will disable Basic and the game should load properly.

Ah, did not know the disabling of the basic stuff. Works like a charm! Thank you soo much 💪
