It's a 201 block program, pretty hefty.  I am in the

Definitely a good test in that it pushes your hardware to the limit.

So you copied the D64 to a SD Card and then copied it to the 1571 using
WarpCopy64? Bummer, I can try any of that. Do you have a XA1541 adapter that
you could try with OpenCBM to build the disk then see if it works. Or do you
know someone that may have this setup? 

Thanks!
