Hi Frank
As far as I can remember the 1581 was indeed designed with both 64 & 128
in mind as you've probably found out.
Btw I have the disks you were trying at last months meeting. 3 of them
I wasn't able to format & a few others I was. I was able to copy a few
games & such on to a couple of them & I'm trying to get 1 of my old pc's
to work with freedos so I can use star commander again so I can get the
1581 test demo disk to you as well. It's not the be all end all of 1581
utilities but still a useful start.
See you tomorrow night at the meeting,
James

Well I found a ribbon at the flea market today for the 1581. It seems to resolve the write and format issues I had. But.... When I try to load a directory on C128, all I get is garbage but in c64 mode it's fine.
Was the 1581 made to use on the 128?
