Today I'm happy because the SuperCard Pro saved two rare 5.25" disks for commodore 64 from 1985. Greaseweazle failed to make good image of these disks, but the SCP just did it in the first try without any hassle as with the gw!
But there are two more disks to save! SCP could make images for two remaining disks. I was able to list their contents in a C64 emulator (LOAD"$",8 then LIST), but whenever I load them to run the emulator freezes! I'm not sure if the disks are beyond saving or if there is something I can do to save them?
The two disks also have programs on both sides. I was able to read first side, even though without much success as mentioned above. I flipped the disks and read the other side but the SCP complained about missing index. I disabled the index requirement from the menu, and set the copy mode to Splice, but still no recovery from the back sides whatsoever!
I'd appreciate if someone can help to save these disks.
The floppy disk drive I'm using is 5.25" Chinon FZ-506.
Thank you!
