- Hi,
-
- I've got a small problem. I've got these MSX programs (an MSX is an
- old computer standart) backed up on hard disk.
- These programs came from 3.5 inch single sided disks. A normal pc can
- actually read these disks (if you change a byte on the disks) but
- it seems that it can't write it. For it handles the disks just if
- they are double sided, even if the byte (see above) has been changed.
-
- What I need is somebody who can tell me where to find a library to
- write the right sectors to a 3.5 inch disk station, and how to
- do this. The MSX file system is just a bit different from the pc
- file system (it has no subdirectories in the first versions).
- I've looked for some libraries, but I can't find them.
- Please help
-
- Thanx in advance,
-
- Maarten
