? BEST RAM CONFIG FOR KEYBOARD DRIVER ?
« on: July 09, 2012, 04:09 AM »
Hi!


I'm finishing keyboard driver with advanced functions of keyboard...


Currently is located at $1300 - but there is not possible to let it there, most used area for applications...


Which BANK to use to always VISIBLE and also also AVAILABLE and LOCATION which is MOSTLY NOT USED?


Many many many thanks for every help! It's too important for me 'cause I want to burn an EPROM...


Cheers,


Miro

Bank 12 and Bank 13 are good choice if you want your program in RAM anywhere below $8000 but still have access to I/O registers and KERNAL.
 
But if you put your program in EPROM, then obviously the code must not be in RAM and must be above $8000.  Bank 12 has the EPROM from the empty socket inside the C128, and Bank 13 has the ROM from a cartridge (or the empty socket in REU).
 
Good luck with that!
