Thanks, yes a schematic would be great. Can I post it to the web please?
I'm sure Tony knows the following, included as background.
Here's the adapter I used to read the 2564 in a 2764 programmer:
2564 pins?????? 2764 pins
20 (A11)??????? 23 (A11)
23 (A12)??????? 2 (A12)
2+27(CS1+CS2)?? 22 (OE)
1 (Vpp)???????? 28 (Vcc)
22 (PD/PGM)???? 20 (CE)
(NC)??????????? 27 (PGM)
All other pins connected straight through. The above can't be always used in the
reverse direction (eg using a 2764 in a 2564 socket), as CS1 and CS2 may or may not
be tied together depending on the circuit.
Also programming a 2564 uses a different algorithm to programming a 2764. For example,
on a 2764 Vpp can be left at programming voltage of 21V during a verify cycle, whilst on
the 2564 Vpp is at 25V for programming and 5V for verifying / reading (I assume the 25C64
is similar but with a lower Vpp).

I've finally made an adapter to read the 2564 on
my programmer (which can o=
nly read the 2764). There were about 5 pins to rewire=2C I'll write some no=
tes later on the differences.
I've upload the ROM image to:
http://www.vintagecomputers.btinternet.co.uk/mw4/mw4.zip
THanks. I've downloaded it, it unpacks OK. I wondered why the file was
larger than ecxpected, but then saw you'd included both hex and binary
images.
I will probably burn it into a 27C64 (those I have, and my programmer can
easily handle them) and make an adapter to use it in the MW4. Then we can
see if that gets mine working.
I won't be doing this just yet (I've gor various other things to do), but
I will let you know how I get on when I do do it.
If you are going to disassemble the ROM, do you need schematics of the
MW4 hardware?
