   I just received my second copy of gfa basic 3.07 ( the one with the compiler and
   interrupter in one ) that just will not load I mean no directory or nothing.
   I get a " disk in drive A does not respond ....." message. Now my first thought
   is that my drive is bad, but I can access all my other disks with no prob.
   I tried to look at the disks with Mich-trons disk utilities and it says basically
   that there are bad (and or no) fat sectors, whats a fat sector?. I would like to
   think that Antics more on the ball then to send two bad disks in a row, but I
   don't like to think that my systems on the blink. 
      
		Anyone else had any problems with Antic/GFA disks ?

		Any ideas as to whats wrong ?
