Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a C64 (possibly bredbin) in excellent shape, boxed with instructions, with Jiffydos installed. Since I will buy a 1541 2 ultimate I don't need 1541.

Anyone can help?

Thanks!
 
Why do you need Jiffydos if you intend to get a 1541U-II? The cart will load programs with DMA, so it's pretty much instant. Or do you want Jiffydos for something else than the speed loader?

Perfect then I didn't know it was so fast.
Since I still have to receive it I don't know all the 1541 U 2 features.

So I only need the complete c64!
 
There are actually better news than that for you.
1541u2 features a jiffydos kernel replacement so you are all set!

Just got the 1541U-II so didn't know that, but you are right. I just installed a JD C64 kernal as well as the JD 1541-II ROM onto the 1541U-II and it seems to work.

Edit: Well, it seemed to work, but not really. Many games would not run with the JiffyDOS C64 kernal enabled no matter if I loaded them from the 1541 or with DMA. Must be something with the U-II.

Yes for those try loading from the 1541u2 final cartridge!
I am not sure they would work with the jiffydos rom either
 
I sold a boxed breadbin to Markopz so this can be closed, and we'll leave feedback!
