Newbie.. on Sinclair QL...
Posted: Sat May 07, 2011 4:13 pm
I know, I'm a new user of the Sinclair QL.
When I was 17 I dreamed of owning and now, a few years later, I managed to get a gold card and boxed ql with some emulators (QPAC2 and Q-Emulator) ... I also bought the operating system SMSQ_GOLD (run perfectly on emulators and on the Gold Card) ... I then bought QPAC2, QDT and LaunchPad Desktop 2 ... beautiful! Sin, which failed to start anything ... (I state that I am a UNIX systems engineer and I work in IT for a long time, but 'I can not understand the logic that there is' behind the QL .. ) ... I'd like to be able to launch a GUI environment graph on QPAC2 or Q-Emulator, to understand the functioning of the BOOT file, ... in short .. to be able to use the QL! .. I've read several guides, but to no avail ... What I ask is not 'obviously advanced training! If possible, I ask you, the step by step instructions for successfully starting up QPAC2 / Q-Emulator GUI environment to do something ... ... to get up to this environment so 'fascinating! ... Obviously, I can use the programs on PSION microdrive! .. But still nothing better graphics ... I made a post ad-hoc for the Sinclair QL emulator, it is a PC with WinXP Pro ... I thank all those who can give me a help, however small, to begin ... Thanks again and sorry for the request ..
