I've used Skyles' 1541 Flash for over two years now. I have it
on a pair of 1541s on a C-64 and on a SX-64. It not only
speeds up LOADs of programs but also program SAVEs as well
as reads and writes of SEQ files. 

It also has a builtin DOS wedge than can be enabled by entering:

SYS 65626


The version I have has switches to disable FLASH in case you
run across a DOS protected disk that will not work with FLASH.
I've never had that problem, even the 3 minute copy programs
that I've tried all work with FLASH enabled. (But I'm sure there
MUST be some disk it will not work with or they wouldn't have
put the switches in.)

1541 FLASH is VERY transparent, so even cartridges, such as COMAL
2.0 work with it. Of course, COMAL 1.4 and PROMAL also work fine
with it.

The only time I ever had 1541 FLASH not work was when I tried to
run it on a 1541 drive on the serial port with an IEEE drive
in use on the expansion port. (I don't really think they put the
switches in for just this strange case).

Installing 1541 FLASH requires opening the cases of your C-64
and 1541, removing a chip or two, inserting an assembly into
the socket(s), inserting the chip into the assembly and putting
the cases back together.  It should take no more than two hours.
