I'm using Atari800Win and it's got a *spot* for an OSA rom but I've never actually seen one.

If anybody's got one send it to jggruetz@yahoo.ca. I know I probably don't need it but I hate switching machines in the emulator and having it crash because I don't have the rom :)

Jason,

I've published an Atari800Win tutorial that provides links to some places you can download all of the Atari 8-bit support files.

Hope that helps,
Tim

Tim - that's a great walkthrough, but not exactly what I was looking for.

I've had no problems getting the emulator to run. I'm just curious about the "OSA" spot for OS Rom images. I've never seen one in the wild and I'm wondering if it's actually used anywhere or what.

(Mostly it's just annoying that, when cycling through Alt-Y, the system crashes because there is no rom. Not that I cycle much, but I do like playing Shamus and Zombies now and again :) ).

I *believe* that spot is for the OS Revision A rom...which is PAL btw. If you still want it, let me know.

Ahhhh, that makes sense. Yeah, I'd like a copy of it anyway, just in case (use the address above). Thanks Zektor.
