trouble with transfering
hi everyone
this might be a dull question but anyway...
i tried to transfer the following demos to 5.25 disks with star commander. although the transfer seems to end normally the disks won't load on real c64. is there a known problem. i suspect the demos could be 40 track disks and sc only copies 35 tracks. the demos are
1- cycle
2- soiled legacy
3- larch
since i couldn't transfer any one of them i stopped :(
my sc settings are xe1541 cable,turbo/warp speeds. and i choose full disk copy option.
any help would be greatly apreciated.
thnx |

optimus: i suggest you retransfer the disks back to d64 and try the d64s on the pc and see if something is wrong during transfer or during running.
an even better thing to test would be to binary compare the original .d64 and the retransfered .d64 |

Sorry, to correct you, but warp mode is a problem, depending on motherboard and drive. what Exile refers to is correct...
Well, SC/XE1541 is depending on many factors, but nice to hear that warp mode works fine for you :)
Well, and I am speaking about a normal 1541 not one with any SpeedDOS, DolphinDOS, JiffyDOS or so.

and none of the demos you mentioned works on my c128d,
i have to use my c64 + 1541 when i want to watch them
What kind of c128d do you have ? I use one since 96 or so, and except demos that fucks with the vic extra regs, I found out that every demo works fine for me on it. |

Nafcom: Allright, I stand corrected. ;-)
It never caused problems for me, and it's actually the first time I ever heard about it. And I'm using the SC for about, hm, 5 years now (4 or 5 mainboards and most of the time without the parallel speeder floppy). |

its a c128d plastic. for some reason its picky with loaders,
and dislikes the loader in feedback/triad , bastard/breeze
all smash designs demos, hcl's loader. and probably quite
a few other :) |

None of us is really wrong or right, it just depeends on too many factors. I use SC since 1998. |
