Recording and Saving Changes

To record or save changes to a file using the Sonic Blaster software, you should install the card in slot 1, 2, or 6 and set the Slot option to ‘Your Card.’ If the Slot option is not set to ‘Your Card” the software will give you the error message, “Requires AE Sonic Blaster Card” because it cannot “see” the Sonic Blaster card.

◊If you’re not using slot 6, put the card in there and leave the Slots option set to “Your Card”

◊If you have an external modem connected to the GS modem port, put it in slot 2 and toggle between the Sonic Blaster and the modem with the Control Panel’s Slots option.

◊If you have an internal modem and a printer connected

to the GS’ printer port, put it in slot 1 and toggle between Sonic Blaster and the printer with the Control Panel’s Slots option.

The Slots option setting will be discussed more in step 12 of the next chapter.

RamKeeper Users

You’ll need to take your RamKeeper out of its slot during the installation. Before beginning the installation, back up your ROM disk and disconnect both the transformer and the battery. You will not need to remove the RamKeeper’s connector plate. The rest will be explained in Chapter 2.
