Title: Game Maker Alpha V20/20 game card?
Post by: moementum on November 20, 2021, 01:33:12 PM

Does anyone recognize this Game Maker card/chip?  My V20/20 needs a clear and Im waiting on a clear chip, but in the mean time, I have no clue as to what games may or may not be on here. The label/decal on this card/chip is about as vague as they come. Anyone have any ideas about the contents?

If it hasn't been written over, that is the operating system flash card, not the game card.

Here's a photo of the card in the top slot. I'm guessing the previous pic is an OS card that had been overwritten into a game card at some point. It looks like it may have had a different sticker on it at some point and damaged the original label, then had GM scribbled on it. Is there any way to see what's on it?

That's an original OS card for your machine.  The other has obviously been re-written but not re-labeled.  If you have a CF card reader you could read it and look in the code for what it really is.  That comes with some hazards of it's own such as possibly being corrupted if you use Win 10.  Best bet is to wait until you get the machine running again and look at the diagnostic information screens to see what it is.
