我第一次尝试为我的孩子们修复1991年的《Learning Company Spellbound》DOS版本，结果不太理想。尽管软盘并没有存放在任何磁源附近，但3.5英寸的软盘出现了读取错误，Linux也无法挂载它们。`ddrescue`提取了数据，但我还没有确认它是否能正常工作。包装盒里还有5.25英寸的软盘，但我目前没有在线的读取器，这本身就是一个需要解决的问题。我的技术问题是：我拥有的USB 3.5英寸驱动器是一个“USB便携式软盘驱动器”，是中国制造，但没有明显的赞助品牌。如果我花时间用一个更符合那个时代的、带有实际IDE软盘驱动器的系统来恢复这些软盘，它是否能更准确地读取这些磁盘？我的目标是让更多优秀的DOS和早期Windows教育软件能够运行，以便我的孩子们能够使用。这款游戏对我来说意义非凡，因为我保留着原版包装盒，并且我当年就是用它学习的。硬件方面的一个选择是我父母的Leading Edge WinPro 486。机箱看起来状况良好，但我还没有打开机箱检查电容的状况。它原生安装了3.5英寸和5.25英寸的驱动器。

My first attempt at restoring 1991 Learning Company Spellbound for DOS for my children is dubious. Despite being stored nowhere near magnetic sources, there are read errors on the 3.5 inch floppies and Linux could not mount them. ddrescue extracted data but I have not confirmed it works. The box also have 5.25 inch disks but I do not have a reader online at the moment, that is its own project.<p>My technical question is this, the USB 3.5 inch drive I have is a "USB Portable Diskette Drive" that was Made in China but has no obvious sponsoring branding. If I take the time to bring back to life a more period correct system with an actual IDE floppy drive would it read the disks more accurately?<p>My goal is to get more of this good DOS and early Windows educational software working for my children. This particular title is meaningful because I have the actual boxes and learned on it myself all those years ago.<p>One option for hardware is my parent's Leading Edge WinPro 486. The case looks to be in good shape but I have not opened the case to see the condition of the capacitors yet. It has a natively mounted 3.5 and 5.25 inch drive.
