Ehmmm... Went nuts yesterday and bought a package containing some fun stuff.

Got myself.:

C64 ("new model") with orig Box
Commodore Amiga 600 (As new with Box) Soooo white and pretty :-)
C128 with discdrive, cassette, test disc's and and and

So after bragging about my purchase I need to know

How do I load a game on the C64 ? Can't remember at all :-(

Load "",8 ?? Something something something ??

Feeling stupid so asking you guys :-D


LOAD"*",8,1 will load the first file on the disk but sometimes the first file isn't a program so in that case the easiest way is to type LOAD"$",8,1, type list and then move the cursor to the program file. type LOAD in front of it, move the cursor to the end of the filename and at ,8,1. Be sure no characters are displayed after the ,8,1 (in case they are remove them by pressing space) and then hit enter. When loaded type run: . The ":" character after run makes the command ignore any characters being after run which is often the case when you load a file from a long list of files. That's how I do it.
