Re: [emax] always Disk Error! after writing bank to floppy formatted on emax I (emxp 2.1)

2007-02-13 by ted Summers

Are the disks you are using DS/HD. Emax uses DS/DD- so you cover the  
hole (not the write protect, the other one) and this makes the disk  
not be HD anymore.... 720k instead of 1.44MB


Just a thought,
Ted
