(I think maybe this msg. was meant for me?) Martin, >> In other words, the software probably did not corrupt your drive. The >> fact that your Amiga crashed during disk access did. HUNH? WHAT caused the Amiga to crash? THE SOFTWARE! Not to mention, the software was supposed to be READING, not writing, when it locked up the machine. I have had other software crash (the Amiga) WHILE writing, and upon reboot, a LOOONG validation was required. In no case has it corrupted the drive ("Drive dh1: has a READ/WRITE error…"). Now I don't run that software anymore, even though it never corrupted the drive. I don't like tempting fate… Maybe we are splitting hairs, here. Six of one, half-dozen of the other 8-). BTW, DIVINE INTERVENTION has never corrupted floppies, under the same circumtances. So I run it from floppies. — Bob
