just bought a 5.25" floppy drive on e-bay for £4.99 and plugged it into the catweasel ...
I CAN CONVERT C64 DISKS TO .D64 !!!!!

all my amiga and C64 disks can now be safely put on the pc

my PC may meltdown at any time mind .. i now have in the (very sexy) A-Top Gladiator case--
4 hard drives (80,120,40 gig IDE and a 200 gig SATA)
1 CD-RW/DVD combi
1 DVD-RW
2 3.5" floppy drives (one pc, one catweasel)
1 5.25" floppy (catweasel)

I need to convert my C64 Disks into PC. I built one of those x1541 cables now whats a good software to use to make backups? Mind you I have some Protected Disks that I'd like to be able to backup as well.

[Steve B]

there is a good converter program that comes with the catweasel. i dont know if it works with the x1541 cable though ...

I have an SGI Octane 2 workstation that uses a HUGE amount of power

What is catweasel?

[Steve B]

the catweasel is a pci card that, if you plug a 3.5" drive into you can read Amiga disks and convert them to .ADF format.
If you plug a 5.25" drive in, you can read C64 disks
