usually the heads get misaligned, so the drive reads only what it writes
I've been using head cleaning diskettes with only a little or no result at all. Actually the disk drive sometimes loads even if no disk is inserted. After this it won't load again at all. This is very nice when it happens in the middle of disk swapping in a game that loads automatically. That's why I like more disk swapping that is based on a "hit key or fire button to continue".
