Subject: BeebEm Corrupting Disc Images

I have tested it repeatedly and it goes screw up the image every time
without fail.
I am using the Watford Electronics DFS 1.44 in BBC mode & 1770 in Master
mode, BeebEm Ver 1.41 19 March 2002.
I  normally start the emulator up in BBC mode & if you load the image & then
switch to Master mode then BBC and back to master it overwrites the image
(good bye) so make sure you have backup copies of your files !
I.E. Start in BBC, load image file, switch to master, switch back to BBC &
switch to master, hey presto your image file is History !

Peter.
