What disks get corrupted?!?

Even in WinUAE, there are games that suddenly get reading errors and timing issues when floppy speed is set too high.
There are numerous games that work well with Turbo or 800%, some don't like speeds above 400% and there are a few that even only work when speed is set to 100%.

Occasionally, when games try to write with higher floppy speed they seem to write gibberish or something and sometimes corrupt disks.


So if you have problems with running a game, try fiddling with floppy speed.
