PYRAMIX, the arcade game for the CoCo 3 by ColorVenture, is now compatible
with ADOS-3 by SpectroSystems.   (For more information on either product,
see the ads in The Rainbow.)
 
If you own a copy of PYRAMIX that does not work with ADOS-3, here is the
simple way to fix it:
 
1) Type in the following BASIC program (from the OK prompt, after turning
the computer on):
 
10 'ADOS-3 users may insert a FAST command here for quicker loading.
20 IF PEEK(&HD809)=&H2A THEN POKE &HD809,&H20
30 LOADM"PYRAMIX"
 
2) Remove the write-protect label from the Pyramix disk, and put it in the
drive.  Type  SAVE"PYRAMIX.BAS"  and hit enter.
 
3) Your loader is now replaced with one that provides compatibility with
ADOS-3.  To run Pyramix, follow the instructions given in the manual.
 
Note: It is a good idea to make a backup copy of Pyramix before doing this
in case anything should go wrong.  Consult the Pyramix manual on how to do
this.
 
Thanks to Art Flexser for helping clear up this problem.
 
Happy PYRAMIXing!
