Well, to a certain extent you can still transfer copy protected disks with Star Commander. I don't know what copy protection GEOS+4 has used, but if it's just sectors above 35 + bad sector trick than the transfer is possible. Please refer to the SC manual for further info in this matter.

>>Atilla --> mnib uses a parallel-port-equipped 1541, which I do not have, and SVS probably does not have either. We have 1551s and standard plain 1541s.
Yes indeed. Attila, my friend, is existing any other mode?

The colors are probably correct. C64 GEOS is all shades of blue; I would expect that the Plus/4 version would be several shades of one color (such as grey as Atilla pictured) also.
Remember, when these computers were new, a lot of people had black-and-white televisions or monochrome monitors. Hence a monochromatic color scheme would still be readable.

I did a 70% English version 
But the boot-disk is protected and it is not readable with StarCommander, so that I'm not able to create a D64 image. Anyone can help?

Attila: have you discovered where is the address of the GEOS Turbo-load? I'm planning to write a patch to allow loading from 1541, but I've not that address yet.
Second: are there problems with colors?
Anyway a masterpiece!!!

| Good news for GEOS fans
For those GEOS freaks among us: I'm glad to report that I've managed to boot up GEOS with the latest development version of Yape! I need to redesign the user interface and fine-tune the 1551 emulation and then I hope to release a new version soonish.
