Re: disk utility

I need a disk utility under DOS3.3 to repair a file: one sector is bad.
I would like to copy it to a new file skipping the bad sector and saving
what can be saved.

Any ideas?

Just boot into DOS 3.3, get into the monitor and type:

B942:18

then run COPYA to copy the disk to a new one.

This patch disables most error checking, and will allow the copy
to proceed through any bad sectors.
