The issue I was refering to is not whether it would work at all - but whether I could upgrade DiscOVER to handle it. To do so one needs Direct Sector Access - ideally to the whole drive including the partition table, although if one could even get raw wsector access to every sector within a particular DOS partition this would probably be enough. As far as I know this is not supported by any version of QPC - only access to the "QXL.WIN" type of file within a DOS media. The "DOS2 device in QPC2 gives one access at the file level (which I use a lot) and not the raw sector level - or if so I have missed how one gets it!
