Well I've had some success with this checksum business. The data checksum in the header is calculated as follows: You have to do longword EOR's on the mfm encoded data block and then AND the result with x55555555. header data c/s = ( longword 1 EOR longword 2 EOR…longword 256 ) & x55555555 I am still playing with header checksum. It is supposed to be the longword EOR's on the mfm encoded header data, but I haven't been able to duplicate it yet. <Glenn
