My GVP A500HD was screwing up for a while. I was waiting to get AmiBack, n the interim the HD got worse. Lately the sys was telling me it wasn't a DOS disk. I tried to re-format the HD, and was told it couldn't format one particular portion. When I tried to use HD install I get the message that DH0A is not a DOS disk. At a guess there is something more wrong than the data. Any ideas? GVP's tech support is off line for a few weeks. Meanwhile I lost Auto Pilot…does any one know if I can get AP without having to re-register/ pay? Since this HD problem I have been seriously considering a SyQuest unit, in particular the one which can R/W to both the 44mg and the 88mg. Any one out there with experience with this SyQuest unit?
