- I downloaded the SYTOS package from Colorado's BBS last night (after giving
- my credit card number), and was unable to get the package to format a tape!
-
- It would:
-
- - Say "Checking media for existing files"
- - Spin through the tape
- - Rewind
- - Say "Preformatting media"
- - Spin through the tape
- - Rewind
- - Say "Formatting media"
- - Spin through the tape
- - Rewind
- - Spin through the tape
- - Rewind
- - Spin through the tape
- - Rewind
- etc. ad nausem...
- Can anyone format a tape with this package. If so, what's the secret?
- Thanks for any help...
- Un-backed-up,
