Hi everyone,
I enjoy the Mister like nothing else arround now, also the C64 games brings back good old memories for me
I can load the disk games but not the cartridge games.. I see the gamelist and press A then I get a almost empty srcreen with some dots and only <dir> on it? Am I doing something wrong or do I miss something on my Image?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you, If I knew how to add a picture I would sent it right away
but this forum is very new to me so got no clue how to add ?
EDIT : I just dragged the picture from my desktop and seem to work
So I see the list with Cartridge games and if I push button A to start and then this appears...

Thank you1
I load disk this way: first I choose a game, then load it and go back to the Commodore 64 screen and i type load"*",8 then it will load and when ready
I type Run
I the 80`s we build in a Speeddos chip (maybe you ever heard of this ? ) then it was just press the F7 key for a list from the disk, then we scroll to the game we wanted to play and pressed F5 then it loads and when ready we pressed F3 and we could play:)
Man Speeddos was so incridibely fast !!!!

You wouldn't have two C64 directories, one in / media / fat / c64 and the other in / media / fat / Games / C64?

I know that we could only play Winter Games and Summer games with Speeddos only, without speeddos was a no go
I know a game with a robot that was called Chimera, is that the game perhaps?
