   Step 1:   
      
   Get ZoomFloppy (buy one if you don't have one and set it up properly. Follow   
   the   
   instructions. If necessary, contact Jim Brain. Once you get it working, go to   
   Step   
   2.In my opinion, ZoomFloppy is worth the price tag to use Commodore   
   peripherals via   
   USB on modern PC computers and use with the emulator.   
      
   Step 2: Download WinVICE. Load the file x64.exe or x128.exe or any C64 or C128   
   emulation.   
      
   Step 3: In WinVICE, go to Settings in the menu bar of WinVICE window. A drop   
   down   
   menu should appear. Click on Peripheral Settings. The Peripheral Settings   
   window   
   will appear.   
      
   Step 4:   
   Go to Drive 8 tab. click on the square box just to the left of Use IEC Device.   
   A   
   check mark should appear in that small square box. Also click on the circular   
   'bubble' to the left of None.   
      
   Test with a 1541 disk drives. Once you can load and save files to/from the 1541   
   disk drive   
      
   Step 5: If your hard drive uses the Commodore serial port, the hard drives   
   should   
   be a device # between 8 and 11. Repeat Step 4 with the exception that you will   
   use   
   the tab for a different drive device number if the hard drive is on another   
   device   
   number than #8. If it is device 8 then ignore Step 5 and plug the hard drive in   
   instead of the 1541.   
      
      
      
   I maybe missing some steps or there is slight differences between versions of   
   WinVICE and if you are using a non-Windows system, you may need to possibly   
   adjust   
   instruction.
