    Would it be as simple as in CONFIG.LIB setting a$cpu to C500 and z$cpu to E500 and rebuild everything? That library gets pulled into making the bios

    That did it. I made those 2 changes to CONFIG.LIB then ran SUBMIT LDR and SUBMIT CPM, then PUTSYS and copied CCP.COM and the new CPM3.SYS so now CPM 3 boots in AppleWIN with the SoftCard in slot 5 ...
    Is there anywhere that the Slot 5 version of CP/M is available for download?
    As CP/M is now apparently free, I would hope releasing this wouldn't be an issue... (Not that getting CP/M was ever a problem, but. ;-)

    With my Mockingboard in Slot 4, my Softcard is in slot 5, and I wouldn't mind playing with version 3... Never used it back in the day...

    Thanx
