Today I received my G.DOS Slotexpander ( http://gilbertomsx.altervista.org/inglese/slotexpander/slotexpander.html )
I'm using it on my Turbo-R ST with 512Kb internaly.

If I put a Sunrise CF-IDE cardridge in my expander, it does'nt work, I've tried all 4 slots.
Doe anyone knows if this combination is Possible ?

ask to Gilberto if testing on a Turbo-R

Test with Philips computer NMS8245.
The slotexpander run well with the following hardware components
if it's inserted in the indicated slot:


Insert the G.DOS slotexpander in the slot 1 of the NMS8245.
- 2Mb ram esterna (Gouda) in the slot n.0, 1, 2, 3
- FMPAK cartridge (Gouda) in the slot n.0, 1, 2, 3
- Music Module (Philips) in the slot n.0, 1, 2, 3
- MoonSound OPL4 (Henrik Gilvad) in the slot n.0, 1, 2, 3
- SCANNER cartridge (Gouda) in the slot n.0, 1, 2, 3
- IDE (Henrik Gilvad) in the slot n.0, 1, 2, 3
- Game Cartridge (Hyper Sport, Mouser) in the slot n.0, 1, 2, 3


The G.DOS slotexpander can be run with the clock to 7Mhz too.
But, ATTENTON, because some cartridges don't accept this frequency.

i cant help you with the G.DOS expander but i can tell you its not a CF-IDE cartridge fault since i have a slotexpander too (gouda) and the CF interface works perfectly

had a mail from Gilberto, that he knows that Sunrise CF-IDE is not working
now I only have to check my Music Module in the expander, it also wont boot up but maybe the soundchip is active, only dont know how to test it

Is it working with your CF on slot1 or slot2 of your turbo-R, with the slotexpander on the other slot ?

yep that is working so the CF is not the problem anymore.

Now I have to get a 512Kb memory mapper (GOUDA) + SCC Cardridge (Nemesis2) + Philips Music Module working, but the Music Module is giving me a hard time.
