I have 5 original C64 disks, which have not been archived before. All disks work well on my SX-64.
I was able to successfully copy one disk using SCP. I tested it using Vice and it ran well. The other disks were copied into .g64 images but Vice couldn't run them. Vice load the image files and I could "list" the files; when I "run" any program, Vice hangs or the program displays a message saying "bad data or disk alignment error"
I forced my Chinon 5.25" drive into 300 rpm mode and re-imaged the disks, but that didn't help. I'm thinking of buying a 48tpi drive (instead of the Chinin 96tpi), but I'm not sure if this is necessary.
Any help in this regard would be appreciated. Thank you!
