It appears I solved my problem by
looking deeper in the file utility section.
I have used the RootARipper file and
although it did bring the midi file to my Harddrive as simple midi files I
have copy them back to a new disquette and It is just working
fine.
On the other hand the DVcopy did not
do it....
thanks to guy who put it up.
This was a real time saver.
Great group to help each
other.
Jimmy.
Canada, where it is cold... and piano
music warm our heart.
Happy Valentin day everyone
one

diskette using any DOS operating system copying programs. You must use
one of the special disk image copying programs such as one of those
Carol recommended. (dkvcopy is downloadable from this Yahoo site.)
Another option is to check with Yamaha Canada http://www.yamaha.ca/ and
see if you could mail them the diskette and have them make a replacement
copy for you.
