Hi there,

I would like to submit the following program here in the hopes that someone can find a place to archive it for all time and all other Computerland 'BC88' owners: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mYaY-HEctQPPHlKpOUvjzR__3IbJ3IVS/view?usp=sharing

It is called CP84.COM and it allows the BC88 to switch into 8mhz "Turbo" mode. The exact syntax is: cp84 -h

The -h is what enables 8mhz. I didn't get a chance to test but I suspect -l might bring it into 'low' or non-turbo mode.

I assume this applies only the Computerland BC88 - not sure if it applies to the BC286 or any non-Computerland machines. Perhaps others would be the expert on that.
 
Previously seen here.


....blah blah blah, lots of things didn't work......



Update


So I grabbed another 5.25" disk off of the pile that formatted without any bad sectors, made a new copy of the file on my disk, and it works perfectly fine on my computer. Thanks so much.
