And perhaps they did get the disks from an unscrupulous manufacturer. I simply bring this to your attention in light of the discussion about using low-density disks in high-density drives. Even if the disks are labelled HD, they might not in fact be! I wasted 3 hours of my time last night figuring this out. Bruce Waldman, bw@harvarda.bitnet waldman2@husc4.harvard.edu
