DOS 6.2 for MSDOS isn't FAT32, it is FAT16 I believe. Maybe I should look into a different emulatork, Vice, you mention. Thanks
From: Russg on 10 Mar 2007 15:15 I've made progress. I had somehow corrupted the sargon3a.d64 file. Now I can mount the image, LOAD"*",8 and RUN The intro screen comes up and says. 'loading game, please wait'. I wait for 30 minutes and nothing happens. I don't see any indication that the imulated 1541 is working. Maybe the original SARGON3A.D64 is corrupt?

Your emulator might not support that fastloader. I'm not at all familiar w/ frodo. I think it's by someone who really knew the C64 video but I'm not sure how well it emulates disk drive. Try VICE.

I downloaded a new one from a Deutsch site and it worked. Somehow in Frodo, I corrupted the corrupted ..d64 imgage. Thanks a lot.
