   The backup was on 42 Diskettes, using Quaterback 5.1. Which was a brilliant   
   peice of   
    Backup SW for its day 8-)

   Discsalv doesn't quite do what I want. What I need to do is check all the 200   
   or so .adf images   
   I have made of my disks over the last year. Drive Doctor was really good at   
   doing that.

   Disksalv  is the way to go there for sure. I found another very good prg on   
   aminet called   
   Diskmate.

   Do you mean floppy based classic amiga games?   
   Yeah thats not surprising. I never had the luck of getting a ppc card 8-(   
   But the Natami Project looks like its about ready to go into production soon so   
    that will be perfect for running classic Amiga stuff on.

   Thats Odd, I was pretty sure WB 2.04 would load under KS 3.1. I'll have to   
   check
