TinyProblm
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.

Problem ------- There appears to be a problem with the State Machine graphics card and our temporary menu system. The screen goes black and an error is generated about not being in a 256 colour mode. The solution is to not run the menu system at all but bypass it by double-clicking on the Acorn Computing logo with Shift held down. Then double-click on the 93_02 archive.
