I'm trying to run C64 games in BizHawk 2.10 and have been adding the required firmware files to the Firmware folder. I've successfully added the Kernal ROM (901227-03.bin), Basic ROM (901226-01.bin), Chargen ROM (901225-01.bin), and the 1541-II Disk Drive ROM (1541-II.251968-03.bin). However, I haven't been able to locate the 1541 Disk Drive ROM file that BizHawk is specifically scanning for, despite trying different files and versions in the firmware folder. What file name(s) ("Location") is BizHawk looking for in this case?

Right click firmware entry in firmware manager, click Info. Note that BizHawk does not care for the file name (the ones given in Info are just suggestions), it identifies the files by hash.

Thanks, but I still can't find the expected file for this. For example, I've tried all 1541-files from this location: [Moderator Edit: Do not link to or reference places that distribute copyright-protected materials.], but none is recognized.

Seems the hash expected for the 1541 ROM is actually just rev 1 of the 1541-II ROM, according to MAME: https://github.com/mamedev/mame/blob/0df6022122abd12e9f132f73ff20061d79de3acb/src/devices/bus/cbmiec/c1541.cpp#L287

In my case though, it's the expected C64_Drive-1541.bin that I havn't been able to find (1541 Disk Drive ROM, not the 1541-II).

The expected C64_Drive-1541.bin file is actually the rev1 ROM for the 1541-II.
