Don: Do you happen to know what version of the FastROM you're using? I've got their latest 4.0 ROM (device driver 3.15) installed in my machine, and still have the problem (only with Dillon's TAPE: driver, BtnTap 2.1 seems to work fine). I've never tried BRU as it's mostly brain dead. -Mike Schiller In sunny Fort Lauderdale

I've never regretted buying Quarterback. It has saved my *** many times and has been a useful tool for moving files from machine to machine on those rare occasions I've had to do so. I'm anxious for the 5.0 upgrade. Since one of our machines has a GVP Series II, I'm hoping that QB runs with it since 3070 support is the only new 5.0 feature I need. I don't know what the rom revision level is, but it is circa June 1991. – Don – via Whap!

I will agree with you that QuarterBack and QuarterBack tools, are very usefull tools and like you they have saved my bacon on more than one occasion. I run a BBS. But I did buy Ami-Back recently and found that it does everything that QuarterBack does and a little more. I'm not saying it's better it's just that it works with my GVP Series II and my WangTech 5051 Tape Drive, Flawlessly and it's pretty fast too. I did a IMAGE Backup of my AmaxII Partion, a 20 meg partion and it only took 3 minutes! I to will get 5.0 of QuarterBack, but I have two great programs to play with now.

James You aren't the only one who has recommended Ami-back. I'll have to look into it. – Don – via Whap!
