Has Frodo Stopped Working For Anyone Else?

[gleng]

For some reason, Frodo has stopped working for me. I can load the program itself, and it functions normally, but for some reason I can't load any games.

I can add the .d64 disk image, I can browse the disk, but when I try to run a game, all I get is a blank coloured screen. (I've seen yellow, green, and purple so far.)

I've tried with both Frodo and FrodoPC if that helps. I'm wondering if anyone else is seeing this behaviour? :huh:

chkdsk reports no problem, and I tried freshly formatting it, but it didn't seem to make any difference. It's really strange, it basically stopped working overnight. Oh well, I have Quake!

Write protecting your card will cause Frodo2x to crash. Make sure your card isn't write protected or full.

OK, it's in the root of the SD card, and so are the games. The card has plenty of room (182MB free), and it's not write protected. I've chkdsk'd the card and freshly formatted it to FAT32. I'm using Frodo 0.9.3.

The only thing that's changed since yesterday is that I'm now using an external power supply, but that's working fine with everything else and I can't see why it would matter. (I've also gone back to trying it with batteries, with the same issues.)

AH, I should note that Frodo itself isn't completely crashing, because when it "blank-screens" I can use the menu to quit back to the desktop. This is with games that were working fine yesterday. Beats me. I'll have a dick around with it and see what's happening.
