| | | | | I assumed that the Commodore 1581 was failing because of a bad WD1772 IC (as documented in Part I). So I ordered a WD1772 replacement and the IC socket, I developed some basic desoldering skills, watched some desoldering videos, and also got a cheap desoldering iron from Radio Shack: So, I removed the board from the Commodore 1581 and started to desolder the IC. To my surprise, the $11-buck desolder iron worked pretty well. I was able to remove all the solder from the pins in a few minutes. | |

Here's an example, transferring files from a Tatung Einstein to a Windows 10 computer using a USB to Serial adapter and a custom cable. Most of the details apply to other computers making it possible to swap files between retro and new machines relatively easily. | |
