Re: Mechanicus help

Hey guys, thanks very much... your advice was spot-on. I had been
using the "Tape Device 1" option in CCS, but I then went back and used
"1541 device 8". I'm not familiar with the C64, I had a ZX Spectrum,
this is for my girlfriend's mother. The levels loaded and she is now
very happy!

Thanks again.
