Hi Adre,

Right, you had uploaded a set of 6.1 but weren't sure if they were valid
(as I recall) so I took my old copy (2002) and passed them through
SAMDisk which cleaned them up and got them working fine.

The Prog disc of mine is the programmers disc.

I wonder if the 6.0 USER discs will be fine for the 6.1.

Did you ever send the SAMDisk version images of your 6.1 files? I've
misplaced them if so...you are welcome to download and compare my files
with yours and report back.

I don't know the answer so didn't reply - that is probably why you
aren't hearing back, perhaps no one knows!

Apparently the OS9MAX demo CAN read discs on a PC, so you may want to
try that...
