KryoFlux Support Forums

Only a 50/50 ISA H20 and Cotton bud cleaning.. Which did help with a couple of disks. but some of the disks are so badly corrupted that no amount of cleaning or intensive flux reading would help. In short I think I did well to recover as much as I did. ..not that any of this effort is much use if 1 ...

Tally so far - I have successfully recovered Disks 2 and 3 of The Secret of Monkey Island I suspect Disk 1 is unrecoverable Monkey Island 2 ..sadly all disks appear damaged beyond recovery System shock ..nine disk set Persistance has allowed me to recover disks 1 through 7 ..and disk 9 using the GUI...

Hi ...I wonder if anyone can help me restore disk 1 of this big box PC game. After many retries with my Kryoflux board ..tweaking disk spin speed and retry attempts I managed to recover the contents of disks 2 and 3. Sadly disk 1 is too far gone flux wise. I'd like to split the case and replace the ...

Fair enough I guess ..I have perhaps assumed too much. I understand why protected disks and IPFs for those disks are not available publicly ..and I guess if cloning CP disks was possible it would be open to abuse. nonetheless from my own perspective I just wish it was easy to back up my genuine flop...

Reading the comments ..I get the impression that my KF board is 'capable' of what I wanted ..but so far at least the software does not support cloning of protected disks.
A real shame as this was one of the reasons I purchased it.

Thanks for replying David .. I've posted a request for help in the second thread of the 2 links you provided. I'm guessing I have to use the command line interface and not the GUI if I am to achieve my objective.. But I'm cluless in this regard. If all else fails ..is there a way to obtain IPF files...

Hi .. I'm in exactly the situation being discussed here. I have original Amiga games which I fear may be coming to end of life re the floppies ..and would like to get them cloned/preserved by dumping them(copy protected) as raw images ..and written back to new old stock floppy disks .. I have tried ...

Now I'm just confused .. I thought that Kryoflux just dumped raw images of the magnetic flux from the floppy ...thus in was possible to write an exact clone back to a new floppy regardless of the origin and format type ? and in the process preserve the data for posterity ..? In other words ..the who...

After much effort I finally repaired my old Amiga 500 ...and some of my original games played just fine.. I then dug out my workbench 1.3.3 disks and oh oh ..bit rot. I then began a hunt for replacements ..which I now have and they boot fine. This of course put me in panic mode ..and I'm now looking...

Got sick of this auto update Boss bollox .. My solution ..was crude but effective .. A dedicated small form factor pc desktop which is never connected to t'interweb .. If I do feel the need I have an raw imaged hard drive with a stable os which I can go back to in an emergency. and I use win7 which ...
