Is Quaterback V5.0.4 the latest version? I attempted a backup of a harddrive to DF1:(normal 800K internal drive) and DF2: (external Air Drive 800K) and got stalled when I was looking at a diskette on DF0: (my High Density floppy drive) with Diskmaster. When I started testing my backup diskettes after rebooting, QB 5.0.4 said that the diskettes were corrupt and apparently could not read them correctly. Thanks for your help!

Gayle, Make sure that a High Density disk is in the drive before starting Quarterback (or choose a different restore source insert a HD disk and change back to floppies) Trackdisk will report the size of the media based on what it last saw. Your backup should test correctly if you get the system to recognize the HD disks. You should already have received an upgrade notice for the Quarterback 6.0 version that we are now shipping, I'll check the database and get another anoucement out to you.

Donovan, I am getting another upgrade notice out to you today. The Mailing house that we use seems to have some problems with our database from time to time. This time they lost a few addresses and couldn't explain which ones were likely to have been lost. BTW Congratulations on your graduation, I wish you success in whatever path you choose.

I got my notice Randy, and the QB 6.0 upgrade too. But I apparently shouldn't have called in for my upgrade because my name was upgraded to "Gerald Boffstetter" on the QB 6.0 upgrade package. Note that the double "f"s should be "n"s. The address was correct otherwise. // \X/ Amiga or bust! Gary Bonnstetter, Bonnsoft

#71123From: Mark SterlingDec 28, 1993 8:38 PM
Randy, I did not get an upgrade notice either. I have had versions of Qback since day 1. I currently have 5.0.3. My address has not changed. If the new version allows fast ram for buffering, multiple volume backups and raises my IQ 30 points then "where do I sign?". Goin' AP …..Mark Sterling
#71164From: New Horizons SoftwareDec 29, 1993 12:15 PM
Fast Ram for buffering, Yes 6.0 does that. Multiple volume backups, Yes if you mean multiple tapes per volume. IQ 30 ++, ????? I'll get another notice out to you. Randy Brooks Central Coast Software A division of New Horizons Software, Inc.
#71193From: Mark SterlingDec 29, 1993 7:36 PM
Randy, Thanks. Yes I did mean multiple tapes per volume. Don't worry about the IQ thing; mebbe 7.0 will have it. Goin' AP …..Mark Sterling
