making backup files

2003-11-27 by rheingansp

Hello,

I am new to the group and want to know if I can back up floppies I 
have purchased.  My PC doesn't recognize the Yamaha disks.  Thanks 
for your help.

Hi there - yes it is possible. Have a look through the archive of messages
for messages about "riparoot". The utility is on the group site files
section in a directory called "midi_magic".

Regards,

James

Using 'Command' ( a DOS window ) in Windows, you can use "Diskcopy A:
A:" It will prompt for the source disk, copy it to memory, then prompt
for the target disk. At this point, remove the Yamaha disk from drive A:
and insert a blank floppy in A:  The copy will be identical to the
original Yamaha disk.
