Hello,

I have a problem I want to play Dung Beetles on my Apple IIGs but it doesn't work. It seems to work on the AppleWin but not on my Apple IIgs, is there away, a DOS, or something I need to get to make it work on my Apple IIgs? My Apple IIgs is using ROM 1, any help would be greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

There is no need I am able to get my Apple IIgs to work nicely on my PC monitor by using a TV tuner. In fact I get to use my Monitor now as a real TV, play Playstation 2 on, Amiga, Commodore, Apple IIgs, etc.

Ok here is the problem when I double click the game .dsk on my Windows it run AppleWin and BANG it works. When I use KEGS with EVEN ROM 3 instead of 1 (that means ROM 1 should BE 100% CORRECT working as ROM 1 is MORE COMPATIBLE than ROM 2) in the emulator of KEG it works 100%. But when I take the same image disk and transfer it between my PC to my REAL Apple IIgs using ADT Pro and using http://www.old-computers.com/history/images/Timeline_0178_DiskII_1.jpg (and the reason I mentioned this so I can give you all MY CONFIGURATION so you can do with it as you wish) and I boot it, it loads then it crashes with jibberish and fails to work. If I was to type

PR#6 after transfering the file from PC to Apple II gs through ADT Pro after quitting from ADT Pro the disk drive keeps on LOADING AND LOADING AND LOADING AND LOADING AND LOADING AND LOADING until end of time.

Please can someone help me? Thanks in advance.

I downloaded it from here

http://www.doperoms.com/roms/apple_ii/Dung%20Beetles%20(1982)(Datasoft)%20&%20Moon%20Patrol%20(19xx)(-)-%5Bh%20Stop%20the%20Madness%5D%5Bo%5D.zip.html

Please if someone CAN HELP me get it to work it will be greatly appreciate. I have giving you all the information you need, the system configuration, software usage, media usage, symptom problem and location of PROGRAM download. I don't think I have anything else to give in terms of clues, can someone help me get it to work? I prefer a billion time to use it on the real deal than ANY emulator. Thanks in advance.
