Harvey:
 
I've been following your problem and two things have become clear to me:
 
1) Your problems stem from the fact that you are not using a ROM and calling it
with 63013, but using ExtRAM and several different images of ROM's instead (ROM
swapping).  I'm not familar with ExtRAM and the in's and out's of using it, but
you are by passing dedicated software in the system for running an Optional ROM
and that's asking for trouble!
 
2) You are trying to kill the ROM listing from the menu using BASIC, you cannot
kill a ROM listing from BASIC, you have to reset the machine or install another
ROM and CALL 63013 again.  There is no CALL for killing a ROM, but there is the
warm start routine that Rick passed on to you and TS-DOS pokes the Optional ROM
routine in system memory to clear a listing from the menu, you might try those!
 
Hope this helps, Robert
