Why not use already exsiting software? You need to know the exact structure of the file allocation tables. This I don't know, but perhaps you asked the wrong quetion. Personally I access physical disk sectors with "biosdisk" in <bios.h> under BorlandC 3.1. Later versions like 4.5 do not have this function.

I heared that Basic (old Basic) can do the job too. Hope this helps.
