I had difficulty reading a damaged 360 KB floppy a while ago. I finally got an image of it using RESQFLPY, however certain files were still corrupt. Others were OK though.

Is this too much voodoo?

That is essentially the same I did.
Made a copy of the disk and then ran Norton Utilities on it (since the original was unreadable under DOS and I didn't want to cause further problems).
I think some of the files were corrupted, but it's fortunately not a crisis.

But, as you've stated, once a disk goes bad, then you can end up with some files being corrupted.

Hi

Iam now being busy trying to make an image of the disk..

There are a few bad sectors on the disk, but it seems to be readable fine on my NEC V20 XT clone.. I can tell these files are on the disk:

Command.com
Cdisk.sys
Config.sys
Turbo.com
Turbo.doc
Cdisk.doc
Tu.com

7 files 30,203 bytes used and 274,432 bytes free.. Iam trying to upload the copy i made, but can tell if it would work for you.

Device line in config.sys is

device=cdisk.sys

Has someone the diskcopy.com file from Dos 6.22 for me?

I think iam going trying to use diskcopy to clone that protek disk.. First cloning it, then trying to image the good copied disk in my Pentium III 550Mhz setup with 360KB disk drive installed..

I use a USB transfer cable to transfer the files from internet from the Intel core i7 2600K to my pentium III machine.
