VICE! Without any question.

As far as CP/M images, they are available here via the downloads area.

cheers,

I must be blind but I can't CP/M system disk files in download area

I'm using WinVice but there is a problem with full screen mode - it simply wont switch to desired resolution.

can u point me to the D71, D64 or whatever file with CP/M system please ?

regards

Now I have another question

How can I load other file formats other rhan d64, d71 and d81 into VICE emulator ?

I find the best resoultion for it is 800x600, anything else & the screen display looked a bit off or simply didn't display at all.

Does the CP/M system disk load under MESS ?

I tried this,  no luck - I suspect the Z80 implementation is not done in MESS  (or only enough to allow it to boot to 128 native mode).
