Hi Luca, I made up the xe1541 cable but haven't connected it because the SC program
won't run. Is there a Windows version? I thought I had the latest version but it operates in a DOS window - well, so far for me it does !
Do you need the cable and drive connected before it will run ? So far it seems to just lock up after a few keyboard or mouse events.
I have a old DOS comp I'll try it on. Sorry, the SC homepage isn't much help - bloody awful in fact e.g somewhere it says 1581 isn't supported, then you see it as an option for it in one of the menu's. Then mention of various other "Commanders"... what are they, one might wonder ? There's too much detail without explanation.
The difficulty here is a classic case of the developers losing touch with new users trying to figure it all out ! That's why I was hoping someone who's been through it all can pass on the info needed. Any volunteers, pleeez???
Cheers - Kirk
