Thanks to work by Daniele Terdina and Jiri Dolezal, we have now released the Sinclair QL Games Collection 1. This is a set of 10 commercial games for you to play on a Windows based PC, running under Q-emulator for £10 We hope this will help distil the comments that the QL was only ever a business ma...

An upgraded / replacement ULA for the Sinclair ZX81 is now available. The ZX-ULA2 is a direct replacement for the standard ULA used in the Sinclair ZX81 home computer. The ULA is a custom chip designed by Sinclair Research Limited and is responsible for control of the functions of the ZX81, includin...

Congratulations.

You can use a normal PC disk drive - but need to try and ensure it is (a) DD drive (or just use DD disks), and (b) it is set as DS0 (not DS1 as normal on a PC). You can normally achieve this by swapping pins 10 and 12 on a straight floppy cable...

I don't have any interfaces in stock at the moment

Salut, Oui, la carte ne peut pas être gratuite ! Mais, ce montage existe t'il en kit... à monter soi même? Hmm - not quite sure what you are asking here ..... (Google translate does not help much!) The interface does not exist as a kit - the designer decided that would cause too manyproblems, so we...

I ought to correct the original post as well - the ZXpand supports FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32 ! I know that you are not moaning about the fact that it is sold 'for profit' really, but this can be a useful discussion as people tend to think that developers should sell their new projects for the cost of p...

Many thanks for the advert - we have started to promote this interface today - it is called the ZXpand interface: The ZXpand interface is a brand new interface for the Sinclair ZX81 Home Computer which provides the following facilities: • SD Memory Card reader - for instant loading from / saving to ...

Does anyone have copies of the missing software listed at the start of the thread at: http://www.qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=42 This is needed for the QL software preservation project - there are a few French / Belgian / Dutch software companies on that list - for example Pyramide. We would al...

The easiest way is to find a QL disk interface and a 3.5" disk drive which can be used with the Sinclair QL. I have a couple of PCML Q+Disk Interfaces (which include extra memory also) for £30 each plus postage. You then need a disk drive - I have cased external dual disk drives (complete with power...

We have now managed to resurrect an early example of the Sinclair QL home computer as it was first unveiled to the expectant media, complete with the slow v1 Psion software and the infamous Dongle (or Kludge) which contained one third of the QL's operating system. In 26 years of being involved with ...

Issues with reading Microdrive cartridges can be down to various reasons: a) The data is corrupt due to ageing of the magnetic tape. b) Mechanical issue with the cartridge - often the small felt pad between the plastic case and the exposed area of tape (this sits on a small metal spring) is too worn...

The Enterprise 64 and 128 computers marked an odd history in the development of the computer. Developed by Intelligent Software in the UK, the computers were actually quite a good machine. It had a built in operating system (EXOS) as well as a built in screen editor, word-processor and BASIC. The me...

Hi - maybe I can help if this query is still outstanding? Google translation of the french is fairly poor, so I understand that the query is about how to connect a disk drive to a Trump Card for the Sinclair QL? Basically you need a straight floppy disk drive cable (no twists in it) iF you have the ...

Salut, Mais ce n'est pas de la pub déguisé pour un site de vente ? :D Oui, mais on a le droit (si c'est une seule fois et in-topic) A+ Thanks - it is not intended as an advert really, but my business is what makes me who I am - after all I have been working with the same retro computers since 1982 ...
