Hello,
let's look for similarities
same system on CF-card and EEprom

[jojo]

the bare divide does not show the divide logo at startup .

i "mangled" the eprom .bin so that should be ok , but maybe you can share a .bin which is known to work

[jojo]

copied folders on the fat 16 formatted cf card ; bin sys and tmp from esxide 085 zip file

use mangled esxide rom to flash eeprom , usedoriginal .bin to flash the eeprom

only result is a sinclair copyright screen nothing more ,

nmi only resets the spectrum

Hello,
If ESXIDE.BIN was written into the EEprom with a programmer, it should already work.
If only the jumpers are set correctly!

here are some help pages:

If it doesn't work, convert ESXIDE.TAP to .wav

Copy the wav-file in your smartphone and load it into the ZX Spectrum.

Jumper E must be removed for flashing.
After flashing the EEprom, set jumper E again.

This is how it could work then,
