1541 Drive Number Change (2 photos)

Jan 27, '08 12:00 AM
for everyone

Changing the drive number on a Commodore 1541 drive... I have not had to do this in awhile.

Observe the jumper "1" near the center of the frame, with the connecting lead scratched out. This makes this a drive "9" -- reconnecting this with a bead of solder will make it an "8" again, which is what the C64 expects.

There are two jumpers that control drive number, and it works like this, if I remember right:

8 - 1 1
9 - 1 0
10- 0 1
11- 0 0
