Does both the orginal and backup stop at exact same spot??
If not, then you could try swapping disks once you get the read/write error and then press retry.

If you are shure that its the disk which s faulty, then you
can try "fixdisk" from aminet. It mostly can fix disks
with read/write errors. After fixing the disk, just make a
copy onto a fresh disk.

Or copy files per files from one disk to another.


It is permanently ruined if it does not work though..

Even though you own the original disk it's still illegal to download an ADF - you could have made an ADF of your own disk while it was still working, but downloading an ADF of someone else's isn't allowed.

That might be so in the usa, but is not the case here.. You should not need to pay twice for a copy that you already own.

It is virtually impossible to get a working orginal copy these days anyways... It is suprising that his orginal floppy has lasted as long as it have. If everyone thought like you, then all this software would end up getting extinct.
