Are there any other floppy sector repair apps than Flobo floppy bad sector repair v2.0?
It's a very usefull app and i've "fixed" alot of 5.25" floppies with it so they can be used again and yeah it remagnetises the bad areas and most of the times that's all that needs to be done.
Here' my trouble with the app, it needs a win NT based system to run and can only handle drive a: so if you have 2 drives for instance a 3.5" and 5.25" your forced to switch the cables between them and change the bios settings if you need to boot of say the 3.5" drive, getts annoying :S
Atm i'm running this app on win xp and as i said it's done me good many times, it seems to work alot beter on 5.25" floppies than on 3.5" for some reason even if it was made for those.
So anyone know any similair apps? not a app that hides the bad sector but one "fixes" it, and has support for 2 drives, a: and b:.
