What version of Fastback? There were two major variations.
Initially, Fastback had its own floppy drivers and format. The simplest
way to restore from that is to get an XT- or AT-speed system (the
program uses programmed delay loops so a fast CPU won't do the job) and
the original program (I think I still have it).
A subsequent version (Fastback II) used standard BIOS formatting and was
more straightforward.
Is something wrong with your system? I can barely read the message for
all the typos.
