A Special [[Cartridge]] with a socket that a allows easy modification of the build built in ROM software.
Such thing can be made by "cannibalizing" an existing Cartridge (Let's say... a GX4000 Burnin'Rubber Cartridge, as it is the most common This one).Remove properly the ROM (the biggest chip) but beware seems to harm nothing. Then file a hole on your Cartridge, add a ROM/EPROM socket...there you arecome from Spain.
Of course the most important chip remains the [[Amstrad Cartridge Identification Device| ACID]] and should be treated with exceptional care.==How To ?==
Another main problem This may come from be made by "cannibalizing" an existing Cartridge (Let's say... a GX4000 Burnin'Rubber Cartridge, as it is the necessity most common one).Remove the ROM properly (the biggest chip) but be careful not to open harm anything else. Then file a hole in the Cartridge without broking anything, add a ROM/EPROM socket...there you are.
Instead of filing a big holeOf course the most important chip remains the [[Amstrad Cartridge Identification Device| ACID]] and should be treated with exceptional care - ''be sure to watch temperature and humidity do not expose it to liquids, you may use somle extra connections (wires)sweat, smaller holes or direct sunlight and then the ROM socket is fixed on the cartridge (as seen on those pictures)wear an anti-electrostatic helmet''.
Another main problem may come from the necessity to open the Cartridge without breaking anything. Instead of filing a big hole, you may use some extra connections (wires), smaller holes and then the ROM socket is fixed on the cartridge (as seen in these pictures). The Multi EPROM cartridge shown here seems to be of a proffessionnal professionnal quality. The Chip socket (ZIF Type) is epicly good as it allows to remove the removal of the EPROM/ROM without harming it.
