If that bootsector IS ever lost, you can still find your files and COPY them over to a second drive or a floppy or RAMdisk, with DADE.
You give me a litle hope now Frankie, thanks!
I'm a bit curious here, how do you know that the FATs and the directory are ok, and how do you know that the bootsector is filled up with semicolons, if you can't access the drive?
You are right, I don't know; but have that hope because I can read sectors from the disk with the DISKUS-demo included in my HDDRIVER-ploppy.
I guess you are using some kind of disk monitor/editor? Then whatch up! Some of them were written with floppys only in mind. i e they do NOT understand any other sector-per-cluster ratio than 2/1. Such proggies could mess the drive up even worse! Believe it, I learned that the hard way...
Be sure, I will never do anything whitout permission :-)
DADE keeps track of everything on the HD, and it does it good! :)
where can I got a copy (legaly)?
