The Supercharger is very picky in that respect. If your SC works at all on your 7800, chances are pretty high, that loading data into it works as well. > Only thing I thought of observationally is that the Supercharger > might draw more power than a regular cartridge and my (and those > other folks') power supply might be underperforming.

I don't know what the problem with the SC is either, but the PAL Compumate keyboard doesn't work properly on my PAL 7800 because of a programming error that relies on some undifined bits in the collision detection registers. On the 2600 the state of the bits is accidently as expected, but on the 7800 it isn't and therefore you can't run any BASIC programs.
