Hello,
Several months ago I bought a Transwarp GS accellerator card on e-bay.
I used it and it seemed marginally faster. I tried loading a demo I had
downloaded earlier that wouldn't run on my IIgs because I didn't have an
accelerator the last time and this time it still said my computer was
too slow.. I checked and sure enough the TWGS was in accellerated mode..
So I'm going to try making it faster.
Anyway before I bother speeding up Mhz with a new chip and osilator and
such I thought I'd look into upgrading the cache since it's only 8k. I
found a 32k cashe upgrade available from ///SHH Systeme in Germany. The
only problem is it wouldn't come with the ROM nessasary to make it work
because it is copyrighted materal apparently.
I'm interested in this but I just don't know where or how I would be
able to get the ROM. I don't think I'd be able to buy it from the
copyright holder since it's so old, nor would I be able to burn an eprom
of one if I downloaded it somewhere as I don't have access to an eprom
burner. Is it possible to get the ROM somehow?
