A: hold 2 and then press the button to confirm (try space, X, z, shift, ctrl)
B: will try later myself. Does it work in an emulator?
C: because it is an MSX2+ game.
D: need name

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR HELP I will try it tomorrow. C is an MSX2+ game? I LOVE MSX COMMUNITY AND MSX COMPUTER BADLY!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeee!!! THAT IS HOT! THAT IS HOT!

I think you are right!! It is glovellius 2!!! The graphics are sweeeeeeeeeeeeet!! Thank you for your help Jipe. I will check it out tomorrow as you said.

For the logic one there is a ROM edition (different levels of course) but works just fine in the ROM. I just thought it was hot to play it in disk edition..but that is fine. It could be possible the the disk edition is target it for MSX2+ too.

Hey guys, I found a game that is refusing to work with my megaflash:

https://kai-magazine-software.fwscart.com/The_Sorrow_of_Gadh...

The Sorrow Of Gadhlan thus. When I flash it..it flashes all the way to the end and when I reset my MSX, nothing happens. It doesn't run the game and it goes right back to MM as if nothing happened. Any advice.

Best to contact the seller on how to use it on MFR.

I emailed them. I hope they reply. But if there is no way it works, then I might have no choice but buy it again as a physical cartridge this time. I hope this is not the case though. I mean if it works in emulator it should work on real MSX.

Have you tried to flash the ROM using /k5 /u options?
E.g.: OPFXSD SORROW.ROM /K5 /U

Now, that's a mistake. The emulator may emulate hardware that you don't have on your real MSX.

The reverse is true though, if the same hardware emulated as on which the software works.

Aaah!! Thanks Manuel Guillian, thank you a billion time over. It works a 100%. I will not flash any other ROM until I finish this game hehe!!

Again, thank you Guillian and thank you Manuel for clerifying my mistake.
