I've sucessfully backed up my original of Dungeon Master and my original
of Baal using NIB v1.0 on my Amiga 1000 with a 1010 drive and my Amiga
500 with a 1010 drive.  My question is - I sent in my check to the
author of NIB for his soon to be released commercial version, that was
about 2 months ago! And not a word has come back! Has anyone received
their upgrade yet? Also, for Baal, you have to NIBBLECOPY it until it
works, it takes a few trys.

Try using a brandnew disk when backing up your originals, sometimes used
disks don't work.  Hope this helps ... :)
