I've managed to aquire an old copy of Digital Performer 2.11 with a single original key floppy. I wanted to make a backup copy since I don't completely trust 14 year old disks. The rig I'm using to attempt copy has been a Qaudra 605 running system 8.1. I've tried DiskDup+ 2.9.2 which makes a disc but when I try to run the copy it asks for the original disk. I tried CopyII mac but it hangs the system. Anyone had any success with this kind of thing? What sofware should I try?

Thanks

and you require another authorization floppy ?
