archive file in error defective floppy

Recommended Posts

Hello,

How do you try to recover part of your archive file I/F 128 whose diskette is damaged.

Do you have a solution even complex I want to this file.

 

Thank

If the archive file itself is undamaged, this could be done. If the damage is in the archive file, your chances are bad.

 

Real diskette or image?

hello Michael,

 

Is a real diskette,  it is damaged at the end of the file, I read the file with a sector editor and the end of the file is corrupt.

 

Thank.

Does the Archiver program open the file? If so, maybe you could try extracting single files from it till you hit the bad one, skipping that one.

 

When you extract, the program displays which file it is working on. It will of course spit out an error then stop on a bad file.

worry about this archive, it only has one text file, with a copy of the diskette TIDir the name of the archive file is present, but it crashes archiving.

there is only the end of the file which is hs.

 

Thank

Maybe you can get a sector dump of the disk, then I can try to unpack the file using TIMT, with some changes in my LZW decompressor. Once we have it decompressed, you can easily see the contents.

I give you my archive file in back format, if you do it it's good for me and I thank you, but don't spend too much time on it I managed with arc303 to have some pieces and I'm not on that it is really useful to me, but as I miss it a lot I don't know.

The name on the TI is  GE*PROD/L.

 

I thank you in advance even if you do not succeed the gesture is very nice
