- Hi folks!
-
- Just a while ago, I dusted my old '41, and noticed that it
- was out of order: it starts humming, but doesn't know when
- to stop. I have this vague idea, that the disk should stop
- spinning and the led should emit some green light...
- I searched for loose wires, components covered with ashes
- etc, but to me it seems to be just fine. Any ideas?
-
- I also downloaded the x1541.exe from an ftp-site, but
- didn't find any documents. I sort of fantasized, I could
- replace my non-functional 1541 with my PC and a few Mbytes
- of storage. I still wonder, if such a beast exist.
- You know, there are still a couple of good time killers
- for c64.
