Lots of Magazines and Disks to Donate
Hello Team
I was planning to go through my stack of amiga magazines and disks to see what I wanted to keep (using WinUAE) and discard the rest. Surprise, Surprise, many of the disks came up with errors. I suspect it is the drive, as it left track marks on the disks, and actually made holes in some of the disks. The disks are in good condition with many of them never used before and they have been kept locked away, but of course they are quite old. However, with the above results, I am reluctant to try anymore. Then a quick look on the net found this site which had many of the disks that I was trying to copy. I also have a lot more magazines and disks that are not displayed on the site that I am willing to donate - hopefully somebody else can get better results reading the other disks. There's too many magazines (about 4 foot high stack) to scan or post, so first thing is to see what you want: (Unfortunately, I had previously discarded most of my pre 1993 stack).

Let me know what you want. If not too many, I should be able to post the disks. I will be happy enough to scan the magazines if you don't have too many, but I don't have much free time, so it could take a while. |
