If I can't get it working soon I'm just going to buy one of the cf card readers... that supports lfn... But I'd rather get this working since the windows 98 pc next to the c64 is here to stay. Have to try and recopy all my c64 disk images with the lfn tools... grrr...
The 64HDD is pretty outdated and doesn't work that well. Even if you get it to work, it won't cope with fast loaders used in some games and pretty much all multiload demos.
If you can afford it, I seriously recommend getting either a 1541-ultimate or Chameleon (both work as diskdrive-emulators with images on SD-cards). Both can fully emulate the 1541 diskdrive, and can even cope with fast loaders.
