Great :-)
But a problem is the huge amount of data (seen from
the point of view of a Commodore). One idea I have is using disk
brackets and using a PC for huge data movements. Being a Turbo Pascal
programmer this isn't a problem. But I also want to be able to do that
under Delphi. I'm familiar with Delphi. But I already found out that
using the PORT command doesn't work out under XP.
So my main question: How can I access and edit the sectors of an
harddisk directly?
When you attach it as a hard disk, you can treat the entire disk as one file. See CreateFile (WinAPI), in detail the //PhysicalDrive...
