Sorry to take so long to reply to this question .... I have had simular errors before. The problem is prob. not you hardware. Dos will use a disk if track 0 is bad. You just cannot boot from that disk (i.e. Make said disk a system disk). All it does is write the track # to the FAT and lock out that track. I know this is true for HD's, but I'm sure it will work for floppy's too. Have fun!!! -- /=----------+^ jlmoll@clemson.bitnet Joe Moll --------=\ Internet | oolidjr@hubcap.clemson.edu Clemson University \ UUCP | {pick a hub}!hubcap!oolidjr Clemson, SC \ |\=--------+--------/`
