DL II by Simon Poole had a method for fixing bad fat tables.  I would suggest
using that program before using DC Formatter's IBM boot sector.  If the boot
block is damaged, then you have a really difficult task ahead.  The best
solution would be to copy the boot block from an identical format disk.  Then
run the disk thru DL II.
