PROBLEMEXPOSITION

You need a blank disc for a program, or to program something own, and don't know how to create one.

SOLUTION

With WinVICE, there are 2 possible ways:

• Use an existing D64 image of anything, copy it into another image file (not inside the emulator!), attach that other image and format the disk (open 1,8,15,"n0:name,id":close 1)
• Use the "Create Image" button in the "attach disk image" dialog.
