Using PC-DOS 3.30, i've notices that you can not copy a 720K disk from 1.44M drive to a 720K drive or visa versa. the message "drive or disk types incompatible" keeps poping up. The 1.44 drive has the Extra indicator to see if the disk in the drive is high density and it does work. (formatting 720k's needs the /n & /t parameters). Is this a bug in the program??? I ask, because DISKCOPY makes no complaints about copying 360K and 1.2M Disks until it has a chance to read the disks. Anyone have an idea on how to get around this problem. I'd like to be able to use BOTH disks when copying rather than swap disks in and out of one drive. ------- Lawrence (Larry) Belan ][ 75745,242 (CompuServe) Computer Lab Technician/Telecommnnications Aide L.BELAN (GEnie) The Pennsylvania State University bp3 @ psuvm (bitnet) The Fayette Campus ...!psuvax1!psuvm.bitnet!bp3 (uucp) Computer Center Box 519, Rt. 119 North Uniontown, PA 15401 (412) 430-4163
