Thank you fpganoob, I'm going to try it in a couple of minutes and let you know. Just for information, I've just tested the previous Beta04 (and the 03) by using an external SD card as you advised me, and I ended to the same issue than using them by having the boot.vhd in internal SD. Both don't work on my Mister, only the Beta02 works.

@fpganoob,
I've just tried the Beta4.01 and it doesn't work neither on my side. Tested with both external and internal SD. Same problem graphic issue and randomly I have a reboot or I have a message telling me that the version of the command2.com is wrong.

I'm sorry, that's a strange behavior. It must be related to sdram, cause it's the only changes between this and Beta02.

We will continue trying.
Thanks for testing!!

I am trying beta 2, beta 3 and beta 4.02 and they all works but all 3 suffers of a very tedious and boring background noise that never goes away..

Someone has same issue on his Mister?

Thank you for the update.
How do you load tapes on the MiSTer MSX core?
I have the ADC and some wav files.

It depends of the tape.

Normally :
- load "cas:",r
- bload "cas:",r

Thank you.
I'm sure I'm missing a step but I keep getting an error when I enter those commands.

I think your " are not the correct character. It must not be inverse.

I've just tried on my side with the game Cubic_Duel and the correct command to load it is CLOAD (with nothing behind) and the game was loaded and ran fine (It helped me to check if my ADC works also for this core and yes! it works fine)

For the " character you should normally use SHIFT + ² (the key at the left side of the key 1(&) and you'll get the " and not the one in inverse video

Bload should work like this

I'm making some progress. I can load cubic duel but I don't get the OK prompt. :oops:

I have question regarding the config.txt.
I changed the keyboard and set 0 to turbo. It doesn't seem to be taking in account.
The keyboard layout doesn't change and the games still too quick.
Is the config.txt is taking in account ? How to slow down the game (disable the turbo) ?

Yes Turbo setting from config.txt is read and configured at boot.
IIRC Keyboard layout too.

You can change the turbo status with turbo from msxdos. It's an utility from the original core from Fabio.

Beta 4.05 01/10/2020
- Tape Load in Turbo mode up to, al least, 3850 Bauds. In Normal mode just 1200 Bauds
