    ill give the dragon card loader another shot, but I don't think that its a rdc, as when I try to clean the card with the loader it says "could not trap card", and when I try to program it it says "no card detected".
    But what file extension does a pl3 card accept? is it a .pl2? or a .bin? or something else?

    maybe just something you are doing wrong ..... ?

    I think I remember to not clean a Red dragon Card ..... just load the new file ...... & remember the " " etc ....

    or something wrong with the card or programmer setup etc .....

    Maybe you gotta wait for the cooler weather and the ice to build up on the screen before it becomes useful again

    yeah, there's probably no other use for it at the moment.

    But if anyone has a non-working .gam 1.6 file they are willing to share, I would be more than happy to see if it will go on the card.

    have you tried loading an old Austar.gam file or Aurora.gam file

    I think you could loaded it using the program "Gamma Card" (GUP ?)

    I know that an old chinese package goes on (might be TVB Australia/Jade?). Does anyone have that file so I can try it?

    youre wasting your time looking for a file to go on until you ascertain exactly what card you have.

    you need to be able to clean/lock the card first before you can load a file.

    i suspect you have settings wrong in your programmer or are using a usb/serial adaptor.

    the gamma/pl1/rdc cards are very fussy with timing....

    Thanks everyone for the help, but I might just stop here.
    But I just want to add that I was told that it is a gamma 1.6, and it is very fussy as to what gam files go on.
    And im currently using a serial to serial cable on an old laptop.

    Who wants the card, to see if they can find out what card it is? If anyone is interested, you can pm me.

    I think it appears to be a non-public gamma, (are they called a sellers card? are they different to PL cards? if they are different to PL cards, what loader is used to program them?)

    Thanks.

    I think that it comes down to the card being a pl3 card. If the file extension for a pl3 file is .pl3, then that is the only file type that I haven't tried, as I don't have any of those files. Could anyone send me an old pl3 file for me to try? And can anyone recommend a pl3 loader? Would all_loader do?

    Thanks everyone for helping.

    Thanks gin, the card doesn't lock, so I don't think its a pl1/2/3 card, so i do think that its a version 1.6 gamma card.

    If you cant clean the card using ALL_Loader.exe ,,,loader.exe,,, and Gamma5.0.exe then your card is a 1.6v...
