Hello, I've been having a deuce of a time trying to get a recent Psygnosis release, AWESOME, to operate properly. The company has been _very_ helpful in trying to get me a disk that will read in my internal floppy drive, but so far to no avail. I have a large collection of software in all kinds of readable form, some copies of master disks, some copy-protected disks, some packed lightly with data, some full of heavily compressed data. None of the rest of it is any problem to read in drive DF0: It's been suggested that perhaps my internal drive is very slightly out of alignment, which may indeed be the case. I'd rather not have to drop another hundred dollars _just_ for this one piece of software, though. Are there any utilities which in fact work at home (without an oscilloscope), like Free Spirit's Ami Alignment, which you all would recommend? Or should I just give up and wait for the CDTV version of this game? Any help or opinion would be appreciated, thanks! — steve
