Thanks. I noticed that too...
My program ended up like this:
1 OPEN1,8,15,"UI":FORT=1TO50:NEXT
2 IFINSTR(DS$,"1541")>0THEND=1 RINT"1541 DETECTED - USING TURBO"
3 CLOSE1
It worked without the FOR loop too, but I put it in there just to be sure...

When I posted that message I cut and pasted frmo the Commodore Knowledge Base.
In reality there is a bug in that sample program. You must assign DS$ to another variable before closing the channel. Otherwise you will always get a DS$ of "OK".

| Detect discdrive?
Hello!
Is there an easy way of detecting if it's a 1541 or a 1551 diskdrive that is connected to the computer? I am making a start menu for a disk, and if it's a 1541, then a disk turbo program should be started...
