Hi folks, I just recently tried playing a booter game on my jr., and much to my dismay, after the loading of the jrIDE bios and selecting the A: drive as the boot source, it comes back with only one message, "Disk Error". This happens with all of my booter disks, and it never did before. I...

In case anybody at home is keeping score, I was able to acquire a copy of DOS 3.3 off of ebay for a very reasonable price, was able to format the CF card in FAT, thereby enabling Windows 10 to see it, moved over img2dsk and the patched DOS 5 disk image, create a bootable floppy from it, and start al...
