Deron,
I recently received the Amiga version of PGS but I'm unable to read it! I
get a non-dos disk error message. Anyone else having this trouble?

I have this trouble with many disks on my NEC Intersect CDR-73 1x
reader. It reads some and not others. I need a new reader.

Works OK here - you must have a 'dud'. Sad
Tell Deron by direct email.

On further reflection it occurs to me thatif you have an 'old' CDROM drive it
may not be able to handle writable CDs. Anything more than about 3 years old
may have a problem as they do not have a powerful enough laser for more than
pre- recorded disks

Deron accidentally sent out a batch of blank disks (doh!) - I got one of
those. Possibly that is the case here too.
