x1541 software
Can anyone tell me of software other than star commander for transfering .d64 files using an x5141 cable, star commander seems to not like my laptop for some reason :( |

details about the laptop maybe? maybe the cable is the problem. x1541 works only on very old pentium I and below.
check: http://sta.c64.org/xcables.html

actually it does work on many newer PCs too - depends on luck.With my pentium3 mobo I used to use additional LPT on ISA for two reasons: 1) integrated LPT doesn't like X and 2) I have some more hardware using LPT |

The best solution these days would probably be to get an XM or XA cable. That way you can use Star Commander _and_ cbm4win to transfer your images. |

I found an earlyer verson of sc, verson 081, works just fine. I was using 082 first. Maybe it was a gfx driver glitch (all the shortcut keys worked, but nothing was displaying on the screen. |

In this case, please report it to Joe:
