Detecting Errors

After completing the setup procedures run the Drive Test, located under Setup|Drives, to test the various components in your computer for any problems. You should test every floppy drive in your system. Also for high density 5½" 1.2Mb or 3¼" 1.4Mb drives, you should test both the low and high density disks.

You should test your setup in the Drives Setup menu. There is also a test option in the Autoloaders Setup menu, however, it does a test on your autoloader setup only.

Important! This test will write over any data on the disk so be sure to use a scratch disk.

• Select Drives from the Setup menu.

• From the Drive List dialog box, select the drive that you want to test and press Test.

• Select the type of disk you will be using and press Ok.

• Insert a test disk in the drive you are testing. DiskDupe will automatically sense the disk and begin testing the drive. When done, DiskDupe will prompt you with any errors that your setup might have.
