Hi all,
I have tried copying an original Ultima III floppy disk with Copy II+
7.4 using the provided parameter for this game.... while the copy
usually works, the drive does a lot of head knocking. Repeated copying
sometimes produced a bit more reliable copies, sometimes nonfunctional
ones that do continuous head knocking.
Am I doing something wrong?? I set the drive speed to 201 MS per
revolution, as described in some doc on the web. At 200 MS (standard
setting) the copy did not work at all.
Is this normal?
