Hi there!
My question is how to copy all my games and programs that I have on my Floppies to a folder in Windows in order to play with them with my Emulator RunMsx.
I already downloaded Dcopy but I don´t have any idea how to use it. Please I need help step by step to achieve this. I´m very interested!!!
Answer me here or send me an e-mail to [jagilayube@hotmail.com] Thanks for all. Hope any reply.

Don't forget to put all disks to WRITE PROTECTED before inserting them in your PC, otherwise Windows might break them.

Hi again!
I Downloaded the program Diskmgr.exe and it worked.
I have many floppies with various games and programs and what I want is to save one by one, extracting from the floppy to my HD.
What I do is:
1.- click on OPEN, then copy from A: (my MSX Disk)
2.- I select the files that the game I want to contains and click on FILE>SAVE AS and I give it a name. But it doesn´t work as I expected because it saves all the floppy content and not the files I selected.
How can I fix this? Is there any way to do so?
Thanks.
P.D. Of course that my floppies are write protected cause there are very precious to me!!

1- copy first all the files from disk in drive A to harddisk
2- start Disk Manager
3- go to File /New , select a disk format of 2 sides, 80 tracks, 9 sectors/tracks, 720 Kbytes
4- Drag and drop the files that you want to put on this disk image
5- go to File / Save as ... and give a name to your disk image

Thanks for your help I did it as you told me and it worked.
It took me the whole day to do so I had to saved more than 70 floppies with many games inside. But it was worth.
Now that I know how to work with this program a new sunrise comes for me!!!
