Boot rom should be called boot.rom not boot.bin

For best compatabiliity a 2.9 or 3.0 Ram is needed. 2.5 tends to give scratchy sound. The Ram must also be the 2 chip variety. 4 chip Ram will not work with the core.

Ebay is often just Ali Express boards with a Markup. Its always best to use one of the recognised resellers. They have customer support

Also where did you get your boards. A recognised seller or cheapo Ali Express ?
As AngelicLiver said. The IO leds need no additional conection other than the standard ones to the DE10. On first boot the red and green LEDS should flash in an alternate manner.

I would go for the Meanwell. Its globally available via digikey and Mouser.

The output is not the important thing with a power supply. Its the stability of the supply under load. The Meanwell is excellent. Ali Express ones may well say 4A 5V bnut then dip badly under load

just because you own a hammer doesnt mean eveything is a nail

Anyone with real HW is more than likely going to have a Real 1541 or the already existing alternatives.

You asked for opinions , you apparently meant I want people to validate my own opinion.

Already covered by a multitude of cheaper alternatives than purchasing a DE10

The codemasters games used to require you to set the region manually. If you didnt you got terrible sound

If you cant rotate it do it like you would on a real machine and rotate the CRT

it just means its not made it to full release. You download the unstable Mister Main rename it and upload it to the mister

That's weird. Did you make sure that you emulating a 68020 with no FPU and did you double check the kickstart rom?

oOo i thought since it was an a500 i was emulating it needed to be a 68000..?

A500 was 68000 not a 68020. 68020 were fitted in the A1200

Update_all and the N64 core is a double edged sword. The new N64 cores sometimes require an unstable Mister Main. This is not covered by adding the line to the downloader.ini. If you ever get black screen first thing to cehck is if the core now needs an unstable Mister Main

No sounds issues at all it sounds fine

RetroCastle does sell SNAC adapters, but I don't see the level shifter.

I assume their PS1 SNAC would be safe to use without it though, since PS1 controllers use 3.3v.

His adaptor has them built into the board

This is incredible but I cannot stand the scanlines! - how do I disable them please?

In the MegaAgs.ini remove the options you dont want. The file is in the Presets folder

With an RTC if its not functioning the Mister will have the wrong day/time. Update_all requires a correctly set date to function. You should always wait for either the Mister to gte its time either from the RTC or the Internet before running update_all

Interesting, how would one of these work? Do you plug it into the MiSTer to essentially give it an antenna receiver for better connection?

Yes it plugs into the USB port and is a standalone BT with an antenna. You could aslo try a short usb cable to move your existing BT adaptor away from the mister

Other thing is to use a pigtail to distancxe the bluetooth receiver from the Mister.

I use https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B08SC9M9K3 and have no issues

well it was there but has been removed now.

for the latests AmigaVision. Scroll to the final post

I would not recomend Bliister. To get the low latency with that you have to use Forked Cores. Any forked core reliant thing runs the risk of the forked cores being behind the real cores.

you cant control the menu via Snac. Snac is linked direct to the core

Jotego abandoned his first attempt at the CPU and is now doing it another way
