The freezing is there on the real machine either. When the drive's CPU is still in its init/reset sequence, your computer may freeze if you try accessing the drive too quickly. Just wait with any disk activity until the LED burns out at startup.
The DLOAD command has been replaced by the LOAD"*",8,1 because the latter loads to the address where the program was originally saved from and not to the start of the BASIC area. Some machine code programs will fail to load to the desired memory location and probably crash.
