There is a way to do a mod and make the DiSCIPLE run on Amstrad Sepctrum +2A model?

What? What program is this? If its a 128 k program, one might need to change the rom chip If its 48k, I always found it very compatible as long as folk did not try tto checksum the rom or look for FF in vacant areas. This would fail on any non eprom speccy I fancy. Brian -- ----- - This newsgroup posting comes to you directly from...

No, this is a disk interface from MGT called DiSCIPLE. I found some info that after Amstrad got de Sinclair, they changed the bus expansion on the +2A model. So, that is why the DiSCIPLE don't works on my model, but on grey +2 it works. Maybe, there is a mod for this, a expansion mod. So, that is my doubt.

I believe what you're looking for is known as the 'Fixit' board. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!original/comp.sys.sinclair/qa33V1iykjo/zy6OChwYR4oJ https://groups.google.com/forum/#!original/comp.sys.sinclair/g_DZNWce3Sw/wGp15DEncxAJ However, it doesn't work too well with a Disciple -- it apparently works in 48k mode, but 128k mode is problematic: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!original/comp.sys.sinclair/uTksLLVfzZ8/QWnx_1_84pkJ -- John Elliott Thinks: This is what a nice clean life leads to.
