you could network the sprite and the new hd and do a striaght copy maybe?

Contact Norbain for a price, they're pretty good at repairs etc.

well steve, this is dm,s secret, ive tried and succeeded once, its a bit long winded so is it really worth it, i take it that your sprites in several bits at the moment lying in some corner of your office, well just box it up and send it to dm cos you know they will do you a good deal on a repair.

have fun

I assume they dont use any windows recognisable filesystem then?

its not windows format but it can be read using hard drive recovery tools

get a SCSI card for your PC and norton Ghost, copy old one to new drive and install, also make a back up just in case it goes pear shaped.
