its a big release it has support for THE400 now
How to flash the PCUAE nandb on THE400 Mini so PCUAE loads on THE400 Mini.
You can use the menu that comes with the PCUAE Installer setup now, it will help you copy the nandb to your THE400 Mini, its on the usb drive now in this folder USB:/START PCUAE-FOR THE400 just run setup you will need to install it to C:/Games folder on the PC, and not on the PCUAE USB Drive
You copy the nandb in two parts so Select Option 1 for Part One - FEL Mode and Option 2 for PART 2 - Win32 Disk Imager, I cut it up into two parts to make it easier for you.
Always look when you download PCUAE for updates, they fixes critical errors and bugs.
you can download normal versions here And on Github here andAIO64 here
Please tell us about bugs you find in PCUAE v4.4.1 and we try to fix them asap, thanks![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Info about PCUAE v4.4.2
================
All scripts have been redone and bug fixed.
And please download latest modes because old versions will not work correctly with this version because off big changes in PCUAE and modes.
You can now pick what firmware you want to use when you run the Atari2600 Plus without the PCUAE USB Drive connected, unplugged or the Color switch set to Color - USB Drive Mode is off, if you switch it to B/W then USB Drive Mode is On, New firmware feature is in the pcuae-settings.txt file under - What Firmware 1, 2 or 3 look below.
You can now load PCUAE on THE400 Mini, you can now flash its nandb using FEL Mode so it boots PCUAE, PCUAE is now setup to run on THE400 Mini so all its Modes work now like its THEC64, but its carousel is the same as THEA500 Mini, its THECarousel Manhattan Skyline so its not modifiable like on THEC64 THECarousel, its like Apple's IOS on the iPhone its locked, they probably now going to use it on every machine they make from now on like Android is on every smartphone so the GUI is the same.
Above you'll find a new PCUAE Installer called pcuae-4.0.0-the400-mini-fel-mode-nandb-for-pc-only-setup2.exe this has the nandb in it you need to flash to THE400 Mini so PCUAE works on it, it has instructions inside the installer(a Menu) on how to use it so please read it carefully and pick the right option.
When flashing the firmware to THE400 Mini two drives will come up on the Windows desktop, make sure its the bigger drive you pick to flash the nandb on to, you can check it with Disk Management on Windows.
This is what's in the pcuae-settings.txt file, all you do is change the yes or no to enable or disable the firmware, only one needs to be yes if all are yes then it will enable the last firmware so Firmware 3 so only one can be enabled.
If you look below you see 1.1_rev2 is enabled so Firmware 2 below, this does not have a shortcut on the keyboard so its a feature thats in the pcuae-settings.txt file only.
