Unwriteable disks!!
Had a bunch of loose disks that had Darkseed and Microprose Formula One Grand Prix in them, dumping showed Dark Seed Disk 1 was unformatted and also Disk 4 of Microprose Formula One Grand Prix!
However, when I tried to write the relevant official IPF's back to disk it wrote no data? My Kryoflux had the write gate jumper closed so it could write and the disk was write enabled but I could not get these two disks to write anything to them? There was also Combat Air Patrol in these loose disks and all 3 disks were virus infected (Rene) and modified but I could write the official IPF's back to fix the tracks that were damaged/modified! So it looks like the two unwriteable disks I have were sent to the duplicators but there was obviously a defect with them as they didn't get any data written to them! Anyone seen this before where the disk looks to be manufactured with no ability to record on to them? |

Seeing as they did spin by hand before dumping it never occurred to me they had detached while in the drive! Time to crack them open and replace the disks!! Merci Denis |
