ROM GLITCHES
Nothing lasts forever
the moon, said one
sage, and if suddenly
remove it, it will happen to everyone
end.
Chemist.
Starting this section I want to immediately
warn all users that if
you will find in this section something like
a hint that it urgently needs to be altered
native ROM, then I tell you right away - stop
this stupid idea.
So, glitch number 1.
If we turn to address #0000, then
The entire system is reset. Actually
In fact, this shouldn’t happen. They say
what's in the branded Spectrum at
#0000 is the procedure for switching to
emulation mode "IBM PC".

from the point of view of one of my friends, this
quite possible.
Glitch number 2.
Try inserting it into the drive
sealed, working disk and type (in
DOS) command FORMAT "xxx". What, no

You bought a new gaming machine, or
system disk, but you can’t read it.
Again ROM.
But there is a way out of this situation.
Remember when you used

before loading, almost always configured
head. When working with a disk drive too
you need to adjust the magnetic head.
Take the largest screwdriver and
forward.
I guess I'll end here
listing countless ROM glitches
our favorite computer. If it works, then
we'll talk more about this topic in the second
issue of the electronic magazine "DI HALT".
Until next time.
