Dear All, I have two original disks of Raster Blaster from Bill Budge which I would like to crack for my personal entertainment. But none of them boot on my ROM03 Apple IIgs. The arm moves then a loud noise is heard and that's it! Either my disks are bad or the disk dis(k)likes my drive or maybe the game is using opcodes that are handled by my IIgs (just like Gamma Goblins from Sirius) Anyone knows whether it is IIgs compatible or not? Thanks in advance, antoine
Just appears that your disk is unreadable. That noise is your 5.25" drive recalibrating is head, and usually is a result of an I/O error.
Raster Blaster should work if you have set your IIGS's speed to "Normal" in the Control Panel prior to booting the system.
