CORRUPTED 3.1 DISK
« on: December 15, 2003, 02:19:53 AM »
Hi All,
This is a call for help.  Several days ago I accidently corrupted the workbench disk of my set of six of the WB 3.1 OS.  I need a copy of just the one disk.  This is not an effort to get a copy of the disk illegally.  I have the original disk which I bought several years ago and I also have the books that came with the OS.  If need be I can send a picture of the disk and the book as proof of ownership.  Unfortunately I don't know where the receipt is by now.  I actually think I have it somewhere but I don't know where it is.  I would be glad to compensate someone if they could help me with this.  As a legal owner I believe that it is quite legal for me to get a copy from somebody.  If anyone out there can help please answer or Email me.  I only need the OS long enough to get the system up and working so I can install 3.9 from the CD drive.

Hi Effy,
               I appreciate the offer but I think I can probably find a copy a little closer to home.  Besides, using mail to do that would probably take a month for the round trip.  As for what would make me happy is concerned, it has nothing to do with this.  Thanks for the offer though.

I have not so far been able to get the create emergency disk function to work but in fairness I must admit that Asim CDFS may not be functioning correctly.  I was able to use my PC to extract the nescessary files to another CD whic I may be able to use to creat a boot disk.  With the CD I copied to I can probably use a utility to transfer the files I need to a floppy.  It seems I can do that much even though I can't create an emergency boot disk.  I just need to know which files should be on the disk.  Maybe someone can help with that.  

It seems to be the conensus here that I have a working computer to start with.  I don't.  I have a big pile of parts, a corrupted WB 3.1 on floppies,  OS 3.9 on CD and a floppy with Asim CDFS on it.  That's all I got and no more.  I have to get it going from there.

As much as I hate to show my ignorance here I have to ask.  What is DMS.

Thanks.  That sounds like the most logical solution.  I wasn't aware that it was available there.
