Well, he could also just buy a very cheap (old) DOS-based PC and that will work just fine for CopyQM. Anyway, I am kind of interested in what you've done to the disk images. If you can somehow find an XP-compatible disk image copier, then I think this would be worthwhile and I would consider replacing the old CopyQM disk images on my site. Until then, I'll stick with the old images and CopyQM. -Glen --- In DW8000@yahoogroups.com, Stefan Rinass <st@...> wrote: > > Hello, > > the DSS-1 uses 800K Disks, not 720k.
