Hi all.

I have no issues in playing .rom or .mx2 or .mx1 games as cartridges.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Check out the section about emulation on the page at

and see if that helps.

Or, you could provide a lot more detail about what you have and what you want to do to see if we can offer more directed advice.

Hi. Thanks for the link. Alas, I'm still no where nearer to solving why I can't load .dsk games.

Are you running C-BIOS by any chance? It doesn't support disks, you'll have to find a real ROM. http://openmsx.org/manual/faq.html#rundiskstapes

Hi lvm_. I'm not sure where to go from here.

You should get BIOS image of a machine with a disk - they often present in MSX games collections and can be found on MSX sites e.g. here https://www.planetemu.net/roms/msx-bios, and add it to your openmsx installation as described here http://openmsx.org/manual/setup.html#installrom

Hi. How do I know which one(s) to dl from https://www.planetemu.net/roms/msx-bios?

Which ones do you own license for so you can play them legally?

Who only emulates roms that they actually own?

I do. And a LOT of other gamers. The real question is "who is in the business of helping you break the law?" and the answer is NO ONE AT LQ!

You're certainly in the minority. Most folk download emulators and play roms that they either owned and no longer have or never owned. Who's the victim here? There's loads of roms online for which it's near impossible or not possible at all to buy and the only way to play them is via emulating the roms. Some laws are plain wrong: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...ess-laws-alarm.

What people do, what people WANT to do, and what YOU do is not at question. I am not doing anything that might get me pulled into court because of advice I gave here. There are sites where you can never tell if you are chatting with a Russian spy, an EU enforcement officer, or a breaker in China, and you can get all kinds of information and if you use it and get caught no one will care. This is not that place.

If you're looking for a trustworthy and licensed online gambling site, Getslots Casino is definitely a top recommendation. This virtual platform offers players an exceptional gaming experience with its wide selection of games from renowned software providers such as NetEnt and Microgaming. The casino holds a valid license from the reputable Malta Gaming Authority, ensuring fair play and player protection. Not only does Getslots https://getslots.casinologin.mobi/ offer a secure environment for gamblers, but it also provides a user-friendly interface that makes navigation seamless. Whether you're into slots, table games, or live dealer options, this site has it all. Additionally, their customer support team is available 24/7 to assist with any inquiries or concerns that may arise during your gambling session.

I have original media for the ones I play. I paid for a license to use that game/software/image. For some I may even have the receipts.

If you do not, then it is better to hit up GOG or Abandonia than to look for illegal images. The risk is just insane!

Can upload the .dsk file and play online here: https://webmsx.org
