Edging closer, but still some windows gotchyas to sort out. Firstly, even though "make simulate" worked, I couldn't locate any resulting "cpu_test" binary outputted via it. After reading the...

For the last-mentioned error (overflow detected), it sounds similar to this raised ticket: https://sourceforge.net/p/ghdl-updates/tickets/9/ The person there said that when running ghdl in windows,...

Thought I'd press on with the cygwin-windows world, just a few more final pushes before I give up on it. I finally realised that the cygwin setup offers you a "gcc-ada" package, and this seems to be...

As I'd made some good progress with the cygwin stuff, I thought I'd better get underway with documenting it. I've made a start on this wiki-page:...

Tonight, I've been improving and refining existing walkthroughs on the draft wiki with more details and screenshots. I'm hopeful there's enough there for any windows developer to be tempted to put...

I'm not sure, but I did see a Wayne introduce himself in the google groups discussion area: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/c65gs-development/scoH5okUy-c/HrIdLAztQzcJ Maybe this is him? :)

Absolutely right. He built 10 boards in total but could only populate 9 of them because some parts become obsolete. I bought two boards (#6 and #7) from him for exhibition purposes. With the creation...

Does anybody have a source about how the C65 nameplate might have looked like? Most pictures you can see without a label at all. However, I have found the following pic, but it's a rendering:...

Yeah, I was trying the monospace markup recently and it surprised me when I saw the opening and closing '%' tokens appear in the resulting output too. Eg: % mono-space example (tokens still showing...

I saw some mention of the RESTORE key held for 3-5 seconds would trigger a reset, but I'm unsure if it's a warm or a cold reset.

After noticing the google-groups site has more of a "devs" focus, and this forum site more of an "end-user" focus, I reckon it's time to move my incremental build-error details over to google-groups,...

I was having a read of Ben-401's docs here: https://github.com/Ben-401/c65gs/blob/dockit/doc/using.md ...and I noticed he mentioned: “To reset/restart the system, press the red "CPU RESET" button on...
