Hey all. I am trying to get my 8-bit BBS software copied off to my PC. I no longer have a Happy or US doubler in my 1050 so I thought I would try to read them via a PC 5 1/4. I have had some luck getting one side done, but haven't figured out how to get the other side! I was one of those people that punched the side of the floppy to use both sides. :)
Can you get both sides with a PC, or do I need to get a Happy board for the 1050.
Also, the copy of DeAna I have found only works with SD...so maybe that rules out ANAdisk. I had more luck using Myutil and copying files to the PC one at a time. I haven't quite figured out how to get them to my ATRs, but I am sure it can't be that bad.
I am really surprised that these nearly 20 year old disks work! Well...at least most of them. Thank God for my good copying programs where I can try 1 sector 500 times.
Thanks,
Don
p.s. Good to see people still interested in this stuff. My wife is wondering what the heck I am doing.
