When I try to copy the disk using diskcopy I get read errors. Has anybody written a program to back up copy protected disks? If not, has anybody figured out how this protection scheme works? The floppy disck controller on the PC supports "read deleted data" and "write de- leted data" commands; does anybody know what these do? Kenneth Almquist
