Backup and restore 63 which has a key? If it is always sector 63 of the whole disk (not inside a partition) then you could make a tiny custom tool for that. One example would be a debug script. Put the script below in a text file and use "debug < script" to run it: acs:100 mov ax,201 mov bx,400 mov cx,3f mov dx,80 int 13 int 20 g rcx 200 m cs:400 l 200 cs:100 n sec63.bin w q The above script copies the sector to a file. The empty line before "g" is necessary. debug sec63.bin < script used with this script: m cs:100 l 200 cs:400 acs:100 mov ax,301 mov bx,400 mov cx,3f mov dx,80 int 13 int 20 g q ...should write the file to the sector. Note that I only tested this in dosemu and that a typo in the script might destroy core data such as your partitioning scheme or bootmenu.
