Ah, the joys of Windows drivers... can you please verify that your XUM appears in the Device Manager like this:
http://ajk.dy.fi/retro/xum_w10.png
If it does not, please try to install \opencbm\windrv\xu1541+xum1541.inf
If Windows does not let you, follow these steps and try again: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...336d248?auth=1
I had the same problems last time I tried to install it, but when I tried a different OpenCBM version it worked.Quote:

Declaring interest in one complete unit. :)
Pm sent.
Was away for the weekend, but warkopz got his adapter working after all so that is good, and also PM replied to D_L.
Just a few more to go. I have still got some PCBs after these, but no other parts, so I can't promise if/when more will be available.
hi, if you still have the mini xum1541 for sale - i'm interested in buying one! how much is shipping to sweden?
@68k
Excellent timing, I have in fact been putting together the last batch of the boards and components just this week! Shipping within Europe is €7, so I'd like a total of €27 for a single adapter. I'll drop you a PM.
@ajk
payment sent for one mini xum1541 - thanks!
btw, do i need a commodore 1571 for that speedy transfer you showed in the video? i.e. does mini xum1541 utilize burst mode? i guess commodore 1541 doesn't have that feature... so, have you done any benchmark tests with commodore 1541 as well?
Payment received, thanks! I'll get the board shipped as soon as possible, although due to Easter it will probably take a couple of extra days.
Unfortunately I have only got a 1571 here to test with, so I can't confirm what the speed is like with the 1541. Perhaps OpenCBM's documentation has something to say about the matter?
Declaring interest in one complete device.
Packages are on the way to jap and 68k. Another three adapters have been sold outside Amibay in the meanwhile, so 22 now remain for sale :)
Received my adapter yesterday. Top quality, excellent work ajk!:thanks:
The led works strange however. When I connect the adapter to a PC, the led remains off. Shouldn't it turn on when connected? The led starts flashing when mini XUM is transfering data and after that the led remains on.
Hmm, it should. Does it otherwise work as expected? I suppose it could be some minor difference in the drivers, but I guess it doesn't really matter if there is no harm :) Looks like the latest W10 update has once again turned driver signature verification on so I can't test right now.
I tested the device again and it seems that I did something that confused the adapter/driver. Perhaps my powering order was 'wrong'.Quote:

I think I had earlier the floppy drive on before I started the PC. This may have caused that the led wasn't lit until some data was transferred first.
Anyway, the adapter worked and works fine despite the led odditity.

PM replied :)
BTW, the post office has changed their fees so I can now offer shipping at less than half the price! €2 for Europe and €3 worldwide.
Interest in one complete device
PM'd and payment sent
@Damon1971, @Joostel
Your adapters are now in the mail. Usually takes about a week so with any luck you'll have them before next weekend :)
I'm also interested in 1 device, please PM me for payment details.
Hi! I'm declaring interest in 1 device and will PM now.
BTW - this device looks great! I've been wanting an easy way to back up my old C64 disks :)
It is great, as long as we're not talking originals (although there is a method to backup copy-protected discs using a 1571 drive).Quote:

i'm very happy with my new toy! it's a simple and inexpensive way to do backup of my old floppies. but, for those who doesn't have a commodore 1571 disk drive, you may be disappointed with the performance (read transfer speed, i.e. you will *not* get a 55 seconds backup copy of 683 blocks as showed in the video ad...). i realized that mini xum1541 probably utilize burst mode for the commodore 1571 disk drive before i bought it, so it wasn't a surprise for me... if you have a good old commodore 1541, 1541-II or 1541 clone, etc. you will get (maybe) two and a half minutes (see below) backup copy which i think is ok after all since it doesn't use burst mode.
my drive is a 1541 clone (oceanic oc-118n), but i think the numbers will be the same for the original as well since those disk drives can't manage burst mode.
also, i had to add the "-t original" option for the "d64copy" command to get 440 bytes/second copy, or the speedier "-t s1" option for the "d64copy" command to get 1200 bytes/second instead (no other options worked...). by default, "d64copy" tries to autodetect which "transfer protocol" to use, which didn't work with my disk drive (because it's a clone with jiffydos 5 installed, maybe...?).
i tried my mini xum1541 both in linux and windows 7. the device driver (VERSION 0.4.99.98, BETA STAGE! January 13th, 2016) for the mini xum1541 seem to work better in the windows 7 environment compared to linux (using libusb-dev version 2:0.1.12-30). for example, i had to re-plug the usb connector every time after the "d64copy" to be able to re-issue the "d64copy" for every new backup - this was not necessay in windows 7.
best wishes

I haven't timed it, but it doesn't take me >2 mins to copy a floppy using my adapter and a plain 1541-II drive. If you use original transfer mode with d64copy it takes that long but you can also use the faster modes with a 1541 (with autodetect I believe it uses either s1 or s2), although they are not as forgiving towards read errors. With bad floppies I sometimes need to use the slow original mode, but mostly it works fine with the speed mode.
Adapter received, thanks ajk
Received. Thanks!
Anyone tried to perform copies of nib or g64 files to real floppies with a 1571 and nibtools? My minixum works flawlessly, but I couldn't achieve that, I receive a driver error

Got my mini xum1541 yesterday, thank you :thumbsup: But I didn't get it to work :unsure: I think the driver installation is correct (Win10):
Attachment 123878
The green light is on, but the 1541-II does not respond to any command like copy or format. No flashing light.
I'll check the driver details when I get back home. Does "cbmctrl detect" see your drive? It might be worth trying another cable, if not, I had some that just did not work for whatever reason.
Will try that when I'm at home .
Looks like some update had again turned on driver signing for me and removed the old drivers. I used Zadig to install a slightly newer libusb-driver, and with this combination everything seems to work. Maybe you could try the same?

Four more adapters available, after that I'm out of parts and another batch is unlikely!
