Thanks Joe - that's done the trick. I had to swap the upper and lower 16KB
in Arkanoid and it runs now! Presumably Rampage has the same issue.

I need to order a couple of more passives now to be able to test the flash
option and the "Flash2" cart.

For those few interested, I'll do some pricing very soon. I've been
ultra-busy the last few weeks and have only been able to devote the odd
minute here-or-there to this project...

Regards,
