- Recently I reacquired an old C64 and 1541. Since the drive
- would not load certain programs, I ran a program called
- "Performance Test" (2.0, I think) off of a disk that I assume
- came with the drive. Unfortunately, it gave me a ton of error
- messages, which I will state below. If anyone knows what these
- mean and how they can be fixed, I would be really appreciative!
-
- Disk new command: 21 Read Error 20 6
- Open Write File: 74 Drive not ready 0 0 (the 2nd time I ran
- the program it said 21 Read Error 18 0).
- Open read file: 21 read error 18 0
- Scratch file: 21 R.E. 18 1
- Write Track 35: 21 R.E 35 0
- Write track 1: 21 R.E. 1 0 (2nd time it said 27 R.E. 1 0)
- Read track 35: 21 R.E. 3 5
- Read track 1: 20 R.E. 1 0(again, 2nd time was 27 R.E. 1 0)
-
- My thanks to anyone who even bothers to read all of this! (BTW,
- the drive is a plain Commodore 1541, if that helps.)
