I doubt that the uEIC can be used directly as I do not think there are GEOS configure files available for it. GEOS 2.0 would load from a real 1541 - 1571 - 1581 but because of the limitation of the kernel on the desktop it will only see something like 112 files (8 files in 14 pages). In any case refer to this thread. c-128.freeforums.net/thread/34/using-sd2iec-geosI found that OmniFlop www.shlock.co.uk/Utils/OmniFlop/OmniFlop.htm is a better solution to burn .D81 images instead of OpenCBM. It works with WXP. Unfortunately I am not familiar at all with any Linux solution for image copying.

You probably have seen this. cbm8bit.com/operating-systems/wheelsIn any case the two files called Wheelssc12842S1 and Wheelssc12842S2 are possibly the best copy of original disks although they are not master disks. The other two called Wheelssc12844S1 and the Wheelssc12844S2 are the same but updated to version 4.4. There is also a version WheelsHD which seems to be the one you may need. If it does not work I would start with the Wheelssc12842S1.d64 and use that to install. Then you can upgrade to wersion 4.4 The three jpg files are the instruction for the upgrade.

My C128DCR has giving some problems. First the screen would not show in the 80C, then intermittently the C1571 would not read the diskettes, now at turn on the screen will show the green banner but not the "ready" prompt and I have to reset the drive for the "ready".
I was thinking about getting one of those Diagnostic Cartridges or any other diagnostic tools that you guys reccomend.
Are there any CRT files that I could copy to the C1541U-II for example? I am not incline in buying a disk since my drive is not really reliable now?
Thanks.

The CommVex 10.0 was great and as always Robert organized everything brilliantly.
I just wanted to thank him for the effort.

I was in the Commodore128.org as well. I also own / use a C128(DCR) - C64 - C16 - C+4 - VIC20. But I am not registered in Denial.
Welcome.

I am really surpise at the fact that there are so few D71 available. A search on pokefinder.org shows 17 files and a search on CBM8but.com shows about 100.
I really like the C1571 drive. It is more durable than the 1541, less prone to misalignment, and the diskettes have double the space. So I am not sure as to why so few D71 files are available.

Powered speakers is what I was thinking myself. In any case now I have some ideas. The one with Commodore label would look cool though. Since they are for both PC and Amiga I should not have any major difficulties in making a cable. Let's see if I can find them for sale somewhere.

I quickly ran a search and seems that also matching the beige color of the C128 could be an issue. It looks as if color speakers is the new thing.
