Version: IomegaWare 4.0.2
"Installation requires use of the product which often does not work on floppy disks."
Summary: Gentlemen:
Installation of IomegaWare replaces the Windows 98 copy program for both zip disks and ordinary floppy disks. The program seems to work find with zip disks and a substitute for the Windows 98 program is required for copying zip disks. It often fails for floppy disks.
For one pair of floppy disks, IomegaWare copied source disk back on the source disk. The program did not stop with instruction to replace source disk with target disk. I scanned both disk and they were fine; I even changed the lable of the target disk.
Another time, the program would not accept a particular floppy disk as a target disk. The window with title "Target Disk" and instructions similar to "Insert disk to which you wish to copy" kept reappearing. I later determined that the proposed target disk had some bad sectors. The behavior would have been fine, it fact very good, if a window appears stating something similar to "Why do you wish to copy to this disk fo'? It contains bad sectors."
Sincerely yours,
Peter C. Mayer
