Sega System 24 Hot Rod Floppy Disk
« on: March 13, 2013, 11:28:24 PM »
Hi All,

As per title, has anyone got a floppy? Not sure what version my board is, 3 or 4 players, ideally would like to swap out the roms for the jap original hot rod, but will try anything!



Had a good lead, but seems to have gone cold, would really really appreciate it.

Cheers!

Thanks ANY thats very kind of you.  :spaceace:

From what ive read it seems a copy can only be made from a working setup, but im not really sure tbh.

Ive got a good lead from segaressurection  too, so its looking promising, cant wait to play the game again  :) The more copies of these around the better imo, would be a massive shame if some time in the future a game was unplayable because of a floppy disc!

If it comes to copying the weirdest kind of floppy formats this is _the_ tool to use:

You _must_ use a "internal" floppy drive (won't work with USB floppy drives).
