I recently bought a boxed copy of The Ultimate doom. It came with 5 original floppies, the original manual and those annoying little leaflets about various things.
Trouble is now I try to install it, the floppies show general failure errors. When I tried disk 1 I could see the files and ran the install batch file, then it started reporting disk problems and now none of them read in this box or another I tried. Pulling back the slide shows the surfaces to have minor smudges and a few circular score marks.
Is there any hope here, anything I can do to retrieve the data on the disks? I've got the cd doom collection but i wanted the dos version to try on my 386.
