- COPYQM Version 3.22. August, 1995
- CopyQM is a diskette duplicating program
- that, since its introduction in 1987,
- has set the standard for PC duplication
- software. This program is by far
- Sydex's most popular, though we do offer
- a complete line of programs related to
- diskette duplication and conversion.
- Call us if you have a special need.
-
- CopyQM is one of the few products to copy
- Microsoft 1.7MB DMF and 1.72MB WinImage
- distribution diskettes used for most
- Microsoft Windows-based products.
-
- CopyQM reads a master diskette and
- formats, writes and verifies duplicates
- of the master diskette. Copying can be
- performed on up to six drives in a
- single session; copies are written on
- only one drive at a time. "No Hands"
- operation is featured--after you've
- started things, you needn't touch the
- keyboard again; just insert diskettes in
- drives as needed.
-
- In addition to the basic operating mode,
- CopyQM features the following:
-
- * Conversion between different formats.
- Unlike competing products which just
- copy the same format to different
- drives, CopyQM actually rebuilds the
- diskette format to match the drive. It's
- possible to convert from a 360K format
- to a 1.44M format. And you wind up with
- 1.44M worth of diskette space.
-
- * Support of image files. An image file
- created by CopyQM is a complete
- description of the information on a
- diskette. You can enter a comment to be
- included (registered version). The image
- file is checksummed with a 32-bit CRC.
-
- * Copies Mac HD and DOS diskettes with
- no special processing. Will copy most
- PC-readable diskettes regardless of
- format with the "Blind" option.
-
- * Copies Microsoft DMF 1.68MB diskettes.
-
- * "SMART" mode will format diskettes
- only when needed.
-
- * Faster copying by copying only active
- data--the empty area on a partially-
- filled diskette is not copied.
-
- * Optional "Plus version" includes
- serial numbering facility, insertion of
- copy-protection information, diskette
- maintenance utility, self-extracting
- image files and more.
-
- * Menu or command-line interface with
- complete on-line help.
-
- * Choice of direct hardware access or
- use of BIOS routines.
