Ok. I've gotten the infamous Key _____ Already set message on one of my 110 meg drives. I do not wish to back up 110 megs onto floppy. :-) Is there an easy fix? I'm not above taking DiskX and playing, if need be. If there's software to do it, I'll call anywhere in North America to get it. If I get enough responses I'll summarize...

Ok - one solution. Quaterback Tools. I sold my old 2500/30 to a
friend who promptly did something dumb and recieved a "Key set" error. QBT
fixed it the first time, and after a long defrag, it's been running like a
champ for months now. I don't think he killed a thing either (tried HD
installing "It Came From The Desert!" and that caused it)...
One point though..for those of you considering the upgrade to 2.0,
I've had my A3000 about 7 months now, and I've never, EVER had a Key set or
HD/Floppy read-write error. If for that reason only, get 2.0

..and now the commercial..
