HXC and MDV

Post by mhanias »

When I execute the command dir mdv1_ on my QL (Gold Card) +HxC
the microdrive spins and shows 540/1440 sectors without contents. Practically it shows the virtual floppy of SD card without its contents. The command dir flp1_ works fine Also the mdv works fine on a bare QL

Not sure why it is doing this, but basically, Toolkit II is stepping in - the DIR command cannot find mdv1_ , so is then pre-pending the default data device from Toolkit II (PRINT DATAD$), so then trying to do a directory of

DIR flp1_mdv1_

Does this happen without the HxC connected?

Maybe this due to a faulty ZX8302?
