[Help] Drive Issues

You need to be cleaning the heads just about every single disk that you dump.  The oxide comes off the disk surface and friction fuses particles to the heads, making reads virtually unusable.  You will to find a fiber type disk cleaner that you insert into the disk drive and use the SuperCard Pro's Utility menu to turn on the motor and step the heads.  You will need to use 91% or higher grade alcohol with the cleaner disk.  Anything lower has too much water content and can cause rusting if spilled anywhere in the drive (or on disks).

You can always send me a disk image of something that won't work.  I can look at the flux data to see if there is a disk or drive issue.
