The version I have installed currently I downloaded from this forum post:

viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1310

Installing the ATR as D1: is going to be a challenge for me. All I have is the AtariMax MyIDE-II and a Fujinet device. I doubt both can be active at the same time. But I will give that a go. Perhaps I should get one of those USB2SIO devices?

I appreciate all the help you're giving me Sijmen. I don't know if I've said that.

I found this note on the FAT32 page....

As work around is suggests to load the newer fat32 loader from IDE with the build in one.
Then select the .bin file and press control-F



The latest FAT32 loader I have installed now is 20130107. Where can I download a newer version?

I DID IT!!

It totally worked :)

I found an atarimax workbook with a new version of the fat32 loader (20130224) and then loaded that. Selected the updated .bin file from the MYIDE-ONLY#7 file and pressed CTRL+F and it worked. It reflashed the cartridge and I now have something that looks much different. It says "Mr.Atari (c) 2018 BETA" on top of the screen.

Long story short, booting into basic now works :)

Amazing Sijmen. Thank you very much for your time and effort.

You're welcome.

Good te read, you made it work. Good job.
Yes there are many ways to Rome.

Manual can be downloaded from my homepage.

Remember that many hotkeys are time-delayed. (I forgot it just now).
So pressing HELP long will get you to the menu's.
This is done because some software uses the same hotkeys as MyBIOS/MyIDE.
