I love it. In my opinion its a real break-through program. I've converted more than one hundred Apple II disks (DOS 3.3, ProDOS and Pascal) to disk images. It even converted a DOS 3.2 disk although I don't know of any emulator that recognizes DOS 3.2 disk images. It won't work on most copy protected disks. My PC is a Pentium 4, with Windows ME. I installed a 1.2M 5.25" drive as B drive and there is a 3.5" drive as A. I run Disk2FDI in a console window (DOS box). The vast majority of my disks convert with no problems even though most are more than twenty years old. Occasionally Disk2FDI will report a bad sector that isn't bad on the Apple II. Usually, running Disk2FDI again on that disk will result in a successful conversion. I have noticed that disks that were copied (or created) with a ProDOS copy program are converted faster with Disk2FDI. I'm not sure why. In any case most disks take less than a minute to convert. With a 1.2M 5.25" drive you cannot read the flip side of an Apple II disk but according to Vincent some 360K 5.25" drives can read the back side. Charlie
