I am now the prowd owner of a Commodore 1581 floppy drive, and I'd like to know if there's a way to copy files to the VIC using 3.5" floppy disks. If I write using Commodore's native format, I can do that with either 1) a Linux based PC, 2) an IBM AT running DOS 6.22, 3) an A1000 running WB1.3,...

I have released a small program here a short time ago, which does create a D64 image from a 1541 disk on a SD2IEC/µIEC. I cannot find it, but it is simple BASIC with a few lines assembler code. You can modify it easily to write back a D64 to a disk, it is very simple. I'm curious, would this also w...

There are many VIC-1541 with the very long electronics board inside of them. These boards have exactly the same part number as those used in the VIC-1540. If you change the ONE rom chip in the VIC-1541 with VLEB that differs from the VIC-1540 with one of the same content as the VIC-1540 then the on...

Would you be interested in providing it a good home then

All I have is the "interface" box that connects to the joystick port, some misc cables, a power supply, and a cartridge minus the shell. Maybe the manual could be copied by someone else who has one of these?? Hopefully it's useful to someone out there!

What's the easiest way to revert a 1541 to a 1540? I have the 1540 already so I could copy the ROMs in it, but would like to leave it alone if I can and use another source... especially if someone out there is selling them for cheap as I don't have the burner or the correct chips either.

Not to hijack your thread or anything, but I actually have a Kantronics unit that I have absolutly no use for... if someone else is into ham radio and wants to play with it, let me know!

I know this is an old subject, but thought I would reply. I own: a VIC-20 (of course) Mega Cart Commodore 8K cart VIC-1540 a "C64 dark beige" 1541 a newer light beige 1541 (not a VIC-1541 and not a 1541-II) a 1571 I tried first to duplicate what I was reading about here by connecting the 1...

Has anyone reverse engineered those 40/80 column cartridges? Maybe someone even considers developing a brand new one, ideally one that does colour and custom graphics and/or sprites. Or would that be cheating on the VIC chip? I'd love to see a clone the DATA-20 if I could, the hardware seems simple...

There is also Miner 2049´er for TI-99/4A, Gameboy and IBM PC. Never seen PC version for sale, but maybe TI-99/4A version some day. I have the Miner 2049er for the TI99, I don't know if you've seen one, but it's a very weird cart. Instead of plugging into the cartridge port like you'd expect, it act...

Unfortunatly even in the earily 90s it was uncommon to have a TV with anything but RF in. I wish we had something like SCART here, not only for home computer use, but VCRs and laserdisc players of that era too.

TI and the VIC20 are almost the same, just a different voltage for the modulator as someone already noted. Atari had the modulators built into their machines, so they didn't have a need to supply power on the 5 pin DIN. After the composit video, audio, and ground, this left two pins that they used f...

I've got a VIC with a couple keys broken off, I picked it up cheap off of Craigslist origionally for parts, but now am thinking of finding a C64 keyboard for it. Either way, I can rob more keys from it if you want, I just don't know if it's the model you're after or not. Plus factor in the shipping ...

Nice, I just picked up a Vic off of my local Craigslist and it has two keys broken off. I initally got it just as a part machine, but then after reading this thread I thought I might find a new keyboard for it. I thought the C64 keyboard looked about right but I've never owned one, now I know what t...

I realized that I forgot one key question. If I download a .prg file from the 'net, do I have to do anything special to transfer it to the uIEC? I mean, I suspect that the uIEC contains emulated disk or partition files, and that a .prg is an actual Commodore program file that should be located on on...
