I have a small problem. I am trying to find a version of STARGEM that works with the new BLITTER ROMS that Atari has for the MEGAS. The older one of course wont work, since the location in the roms that it uses has been moved. My previous request resulted in a responce from a MEGA2 owner who sent me a copy that crashed with 4 bombs at bootup, so it didnt work. (Yes, I know how to UUDECODE, and I checked the file closely) Does anybody have any STARTGEM working that works on new roms, or idealy on both sets of roms? ANY help is greatly appreciated.

I downloaded the STARTGEM.ARC posted in the net here. After I uudecode and unarc it, and put it into auto folder, with a file named STARTGEM.INF which contains a line of text like: A:\flash.prg But it still doesn't with my Mega2! Am I doing something wrong or the program? Jinfu Chen Jinfu@cup.portal.com
