Odd things I have noticed with the software

2) The disk type is what will auto-change the settings.  An image file contains the disk type information in it.  So, if you were loading a C64 disk image when you were last doing something with a 720K disk type, it should change to C64.

3) This is because you are not running the SCP program in Administrator mode.  This is not optional.

#1 Whether or not one is needed it still presents an oddity to the user. If the SCP can tell if a 3.5" or 5.25" drive is attached can that information be shown to the user?

#2 I had not selected anything beforehand, done anything C64 related, etc. I selected the image type and when I then loaded the image it changed the type back to C64. It has done similar things at other times to. I have found to particular sequence of events that causes it.

#3 I believe I have it set to always run in administrator mode. I will double check.

Thanks!
