    Hmm, there might be some procedures to help you to get them backed up to ISOs, even if they seem unreadable. What program did you try to use to make the ISOs?

      I have no idea, this was like 15 years ago haha It was probably Nero or Roxio. At this point I’m sure I could download the whole collection from somewhere.

        I recommend using Alcohol 120% since it has an option to ignore reading errors. Other programs just stop when encountering an error.

        Although, yeah, it is probably already archived somewhere on the internet, but you never know.

        Probably in a nicer format, better quality and better compatibility. Would not be surprised if the box set required its own software to be installed to read the magazine

          Yeah it had an installer and program to read everything, it wasn’t just a simple collection of scanned pages. I got it at a computer show back when I was like 10 or 12, and when “computer shows” were actually a thing in the late 90s hahaha
