I use Star Commander, on an old 486 notebook that cost $0.50 at a rummage
sale. Works very well.

For the xm, i would use CBM4Win (openCBM) with the gui4cbm4win as a
front end (Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003 and Vista) and for
the xe, use Star Commander under DOS) Always make sure if you connect
the xe/xm cable to the PC or 1541, that both are powered off.

See http://sta.c64.org/xcables.html for a cable/software compatibility
chart (and other useful information). Bye,
