not being a PC owner ~ i'm comparing my amiga A500+ to the first stage here ,
this is my methods
1/
my 8296 has gone to a new home a few months ago ( domestics ) , but it's
an 8000 with fancy casing ,
it seems that star commander is a tried & tested solution amongst PC types ,
the cable from that ends in a standard 6 pin din that gets plugged into a
C64 drive,
on my amiga i use ami-64link that also has a cable that ends same way ,
then i can access & transfer stuff to & from the C64 floppy drive quite
happily to & from the amiga .
on my 8096 alligator in service i've got a sipod cable ,
the cable plugs into user port and ends in a 6 pin din ~ the sipod prg
turns the 8000 into an interface box to enable the C64/128 to use the 8x50
drives etc .
just a matter of connecting the 2 cables via a jumper box or unpowered 1541 ,
2/ big blue reader ~ 1581/FD-2000 then onto the C128D's internal 1571
, then that disk into my 4040 drive ,
jordi ~ posted VCD's off to you today ,
i'm hoping to get the backlog of disk copying & shifting started later
this week ,
( domestics permitting )
