thank you very much for your hint. I got these programs, but
rawrite3.com unfortunally doesn't work, it hangs up my computer. I
booted from system-disk (DOS 7.10 from Win98) but all what I can see
is 'Turbo-C', sometimes a german message to insert a disk with
command.com, but either the program finishes immediately or it hangs
up.

Greetings, Winfried
