I have been having problems with my 2000 since I installed an A2620 board. When I use cli, sometimes I will press a key and get the line full of that key. This seems to happen mostly when I run David Haynie's setcpu fastrom program. I'm wondering if this problem is my 2000, my A2620, or just a problem with the setcpu program. It only seems reasonable that this hardware should run with this program, beacuse without it the speed up is not very impressive at all. Rick Jacoby

Rick, The problem that you are experiencing is because you have one of the 'old-style' keyboards (the ones with the small F-keys that are the same size as the standard keyboard keys). There is a slight timing difference with that keyboard that shows itself in a few games. It also causes a problem when you run SetCPU with the FASTROM option. There is a fix here in Lib 14 (I think) called KeyHack that will fix the problem. Hope this helps…BobR
