ok, that also often the case... it did nothing... but sometimes as far as
I remember it really killed the disc ;-)

and after I had a harddisc I tried it there... it just looked like it
doesnt like big harddiscs.

>several harddisk crashes at my place. Or I used it as a last stage, where

you used it on harddiscs... I dont know now what actually happened... but
I had a harddiscs ok, yes, it was FFS... AFAIK diskdoctor doesnt like
FFS... maybe that was it.

Also DiskSalv is very good... but maybe it is more efficent if to first do
a

format drive dh0: name bla quick

and then instruct DiskSalv to do a unformat. Once I could repair a disc
this way that I couldnt repair by running DiskSalv in Repair mode ;-)
