Does anyone here happen to have either the 3.5 inch disk that came with the 1581 and or 1581 toolkit? I picked up a working drive for a song ($5 at goodwill!) but the only disks that they had were blanks. help?

Zimmers has the 1581 Update-5 and -6 ROMs by TFSS with a little information but not complete. Specifically, Update-5 says: The is pretty self-descriptive but is there an accompanying documentation showing how to perform the installations of the additional hardware? What about this parallel transfer routine in Bard's Tale III? On a side note, Zimmers has what looks like the source code for the original 1581 ROM. I have mused upon the notion of an HD version or a dual-drive version of the 1581. Just because. Could be fun but not sure I want another "fun" project on my desk right now. -
Hello, Cleaning up the Radio\Commodore room and have for sale the following items: I'm in Ohio and sales only to the US, sorry no international shipping. #1 Commodore 1581 3.5" floppy drive with 10 formatted disks. #2 Commodore 1581 3.5" floppy drive with 10 formatted disks. I have tested both drives by formatting 20 disks, then doing random copying. Both work fine. Cosmetacially they are good, they do have a few scuffs but not bad for their age. Asking $100.00 plus shipping for each drive. #3 130+ misc. Commodore formatted 5.25" floppy dsks. Asking $22 shipped. SOLD #4 Suncom Joystick. Works fine and looks good. Asking $25 shipped. #5 Unopened box of Maxell HD 5.25" floppy disks. $10 shipped.

Looking for a Commodore 1581 drive.

I picked up a 1581 on everyone's favorite auction site. It was sold as working several years ago when put into storage. Of course, it did not work when I got it. After reading a few posts about what happens to old 1581 drives I was inspired to grease the rails. Thus I disassembled it. This is what I found. Yes. A screw. Right through the fecken cable!! Plus, while the Amiga DD drive (FB-354) is a compatible assembly, I am almost certain the assembly in this drive is not the original as I have never seen one with the yellow drive activity LED attached. Ah, well. I fixed the cable, put some lithium grease on the rails, and voila! A working JiffyDOS 1581. PS: Rate my thumb.
