Ok, thanks for letting me know (:

Hi I recently found an old Amstrad 1640 under a sheet in a garage, it was booting up earlier but I accidentally unplugged it from the power supply and now when I try to turn it on the hard drive light flashes for a second and then nothing happened, Is it a hardware or corrupted hard drive issue?

I knew I had encountered RADCAD before. I was looking through my files and found this: radcad.zip radca101.zip As far as I can tell, these are the original downloads from the Epic FTP.

Hello, I'm a big fan of DOS games and one of my favorites has always been Wolfenstein 3D but I couldn't find a rom with all of the episodes, I only have the first episode... So if someone knows where I can find the rom with all of the episodes I would really appreciate it! I play in a DOSbox emulat...

Well, that was an extremely lucky find then, congrats! I searched for RADCAD using Hallfiry's magazine coverdisk catalogue but found nothing. I did think that the download was available from Epic's website via the Wayback Machine, but apparently I was wrong. Thanks, Radix's webpage used a ftp serve...
