IBM PS/2 Formatted Diskettes - Non-Standard
#2
The SuperCard Pro is just a flux level reader/writer. It doesn't actually "read" anything, it just collects the flux that is read by the disk drive. If the drive can't read the flux (due to the disk being thought by the disk drive that it is low density when in fact it is high density) there might not be anything that you can do to force the drive to read the disk differently than it normally does.

No, having said that, there is one possibility though - you can try changing the DENSITY in the pull-down menu. That will invert the density line. This option was made because some disk drives have a jumper that sets this and sometimes it is backwards. If that disk drive pays attention to that signal (some ignore it), then that might force the drive into reading the opposite density that it normally does. It's worth a try.
