Hi !If you don't know EasyRecovery is very good recovery data (formated or lost), all files systems are supported and existe also in dos version with a rescue floppy disk and support all language (EN, FR. it, de,...)
My problem is when lanching rescue.img of the rescue floppy disk (run rescue.img), the program run normally but it ask me to put floppy in stick A or B !
I don't know why it ask me that because the is only one floppy rescue disk !!!
Do you understand any think?
may be the soft can detect that his floppy is in emulate mode and he don't like that???
anay adea ? please

Please turn on copy-protection of your floppy, and try to boot your PC from floppy drive. EasyRecovery may need to write to floppy disk, but emualted one is read-only.

thinks a lot for your help !So i did that (turn on copy protection of my floppy) and i boot my PC from floppy drive and all is ok ! so the i think that this soft don't need a write access to the floppy (only read acess).
so why he ask me to insert floppy In emulation mode
is it because of some hiden files ? or no floppy Label in emulation mode ??
PS :this soft use PC-dos caldera and 3 batch files:
----------------------------Autoexc.bat-------------
@echo off
a:\xbios /P- /Z /I /M /V=2
KEYB FR, 437
substtoz VDISK
--------------------------LETTER.BAT----------------
@echo off
set DESTPATH=%1:\
echo Votre RAM Disk est %DESTPATH%
path=a:\;%DESTPATH%
ECHO.
ECHO Veuillez patienter...
ECHO Ceci va prendre quelques instants...
copy a:\easyrec.exe %DESTPATH%
%DESTPATH%easyrec %DESTPATH% /y
copy a:\er.bat %DESTPATH%
%DESTPATH%
LOADASPI
RDRINT13 /V=0
drmouse
CALL a:\ER.BAT
cls
echo Votre RAM Disk est %DESTPATH%
echo Merci d'avoir utilis‚ EasyRecovery
------------------------------------ER.bat
@echo off
ERDOS /ve:32

I just created a self-booting floppy disk by EasyRecovery's DataAdvisor, EasyBoot works with this image - not ask any question.Here is the image i tested with : < http://www.ezbsys.com/download/erboot.img >

Thinks a lot for your help !But this erboot.img is DataAdvisor floppy image (a diagnostic tools) and it is NOT a EasyRecovery floppy image (a Recovery tools)!
Thinks again for your help. I will post a solution if i find it...

Thinks a lot xoben :x)I tested ezrecov.img and the result is:
-Work fine (without ansking any question!) with vitual pc (loading iso easyboot image)
-don't work fine ( it ask me to insert flooy...) with a CDRW
So may be the problem is my CDRW. I don't want to loose a CDR only to test if is it the real problem
so xoben, you said that ezrecov.img work fine for you, but did you tested it with a real burning CDR, or CRDW or witn loading iso to Virtual PC (emulation) ?
Thinks again for your help :x kissssss
