Is there a turbo DOS pack for Commodore 64?
Turbo DOS Pack is a set of fast loaders for the Commodore 64 that can be used inside your own programs. Information on how to use the loaders and saving versions for specific memory locations is included inside the program. This particular turbo loader has a basic stub that loads the ML file into memory at 49152.
What was the name of the fast loader program?
One of those was a fast load program called Quickload. The unusual thing about this fast loader is that it’s a two file utility which probably made it unpopular for throwing on a disk full of games or whatever because others wouldn’t be sure which file was the loader shim, although the file size probably makes it obvious to the more astute.
What is Fastboot V2 on a Commodore 1541?
Fastboot v2 or Fastboot-51200 is a speed-up routine for the Commodore 1541 floppy drive that puts itself in memory at decimal location 51200 (sys 51200 to run after loading). This can be handy if you have another program using the common 49152 location for something else.
Which is the fastest loader for a cartridge?
Cartridges typically do not speed up sequential write/read (actually, this refers to CHRIN/ACPTR/CHROUT/CIOUT kernal routines used mostly by multiload games and applications) but often feature quite fast LOAD routines. Cartridges that use DMA (from own RAM or a parallel floppy cable) are very fast typically.
Is there a fast loader for a disk drive?
Fast loaders are available for the datasette and the disk drive, and with a simple fast loader on software basis the 5- to 15-fold of the normal loading speed is reached. For disk drives there are also hardware fast loaders.
