This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Notes for using Around The World In 80 Days on StrongARM Machines ======================================== Under certain circumstances this program crashes on StrongARM machines. The new version of RISC OS that comes with the StrongARM also supports 16 bit sound. If you have the 16 bit sound option turned on but your hardware does not have 16 bit sound capability then this program will crash on the title screen. The cure for this problem is to turn off 16 bit sound by double clicking on !Boot on your hard disc, and clicking on the sound icon (the bell). Turn off the '16 bit' tick, then SHUTDOWN and restart your computer. Q. How do I know if my machine has 16 bit sound hardware? A. Run !Boot and turn '16 bit' sound on. Shutdown and restart the computer. Run !Boot again and go into the sound screen. If you hear a sound when you adjust the volume settings, then you have 16 bit sound hardware. If you hear no sound, then you don't have the necessary hardware and should turn off the '16 bit' option and restart your computer.
