"Model T computer" system rom Y2K patches
General
All the KC-85 clones have the same routine holding the century digits, though appearing at different addresses in different system roms.
A Y2K patching rule that applies the same to all machines is to just search for a certain string of bytes wherever it happens to appear, and edit.
Using the hex-editor of your choice:
Search for this sequence: 23 36 31 23 36 39Replace it with this: 23 36 32 23 36 30
TRS-80 Model 100
- 0x5A53 0x31 -> 0x32
- 0x5A56 0x39 -> 0x30
File:TRS-80 Model 100.orig.bin
File:TRS-80 Model 100.y2k.bin
Most Model 100's have a non-standard pinout for the system rom socket.
If your original system rom has the part number LH535618 (most will), then you can use FlexROM_100 (optionally with REX Classic) to install the patched ROM.
If you have a late model without LH535618, then you can use a plain 27C256, or FlexROM_102 (optionally with REX Classic), or 28C256_to_27C256.
