by dkdev on 2008-02-28 (#31303)

Hi all.
First of all, sorry for my bad english... as a matter of fact, my primary language is russian

I have some trouble with Nestest, here is screenshot:

.
You see, IndirectX, IndirectY and ZeropageX test is failed and i don't understand, what's that hex values means...

PS: NEStress CPU tests is ok.

The correspond to the codes listed in the readme file that should have come with the ROM, if it didn't I can post it here for you. You codes however are:
Code:
(indirect,x) tests
------------------
059h - STA didn't store the data where it was supposed to

(indirect),y tests
------------------
0ECh - should've wrapped zeropage address

zeropage,x tests
----------------
034h - STX,Y failure (page wrapping error)

Can you post the readme that is supposed to come with nestest? I could only find the ROM of that but not the readme.
