Hi, I am restoring an old NorthStar Horizon I bought a few months ago. It came with many hard sector floppy disks I am trying to archive by making disk images. I have used Dave Dunfield's excellent NorthStar transfer utilities to make images of the disks which do not contain sector errors. Fortunately, the majority of the disks can be read error free, however, there are several disks which have sector errors I would like to recover the data from. There is a technique I have found to make disk images of hard sector floppy disks with sector errors. I boot the NorthStar Horizon using the NorthStar CP/M disk and use its "COPY" utility to make a copy of the original disk but without the sectors containing errors. I can then make a disk image of the copy. I often lose some data but am able to recover most if not all the files on the disk. If anyone knows of a better way to recover data from damaged NorthStar hard sector floppy disks, I would certainly like to hear from you. In addition to using Dave Dunfield's NorthStar disk imaging program, I recently purchased a MatchPoint PC card and Uniform PC software to read NorthStar CP/M hard sector floppy disks on a PC. The MatchPoint PC card and Uniform PC software work great for copying files from NorthStar CP/M disks -- *ONLY*. I have even been able to get a sector editor (ZIPZAP) to work once the Uniform PC software has recognised a NorthStar CP/M disk and mounted it as a drive. However, these tools are limited to NorthStar CP/M disks and files only. I would like to be able to read and copy other NorthStar disk formats such as NS DOS, etc. Here is a link for ZIPZIP utility: http://www.bookcase.com/library/software/msdos.util.binedit.html Does anyone know of any software other than Uniform PC which uses the MatchPoint PC card for reading NorthStar hard sector floppy disks? Even a modified version of Uniform.sys to allow reading of any NorthStar hard sector floppy disk format would be good. A PC based utility like MS-DOS "DISKCOPY" using the MatchPoint PC card would be a good alternative. My ideal solution would be to use a MS-DOS disk imaging utility like RAWREAD to make a binary disk image of the NorthStar hard sector floppy disks directly into the PC. Unfortunately, every disk imaging tool I have tried on the PC will not do this. Most likely due since MatchPoint/Uniform only provides a "device driver" interface and not a real hardware disk drive. Maybe there are some of the original MicroSolutions developers on this list? Thanks in advance Andrew Lynch
