Just so everyone knows, I think either the drive's
bad, or it's a software issue, because I was actually
able to safely recover the files from DOS using a utility
that allows read-only access to HPFS. I also have a similar
utility, but for NTFS. If anyone wants a copy, send me an email.
The program seems real handy since I miss using Faxworks for
Win3.x's telephony features since I upgraded to Warp 4.0.
