Atari-Midi Archives

Been using my atari for ages now for music production but can't copy 
disks very well! Even with some of the copy programs?! Is there any 
way to get round the problem of atari disks being of a 
different 'make'?

I would use PC DOS formatted discs so you can also read them on PC and your 
Atari can read them too. See my FAQ page on my site.

Hi Peter,
You shouldn't be having these problems if you're using something like 
Fastcopy with Atari format disks. I would hazard a guess that your 
disk drive might be on the way out if you're copying to and from the 
Atari. If you're having problems with DOS formats then Tim has 
answered your question.
Barrie at Keychange can provide replacement disk drives.

Best wishes,

David.

Is this the D. Etheridge of the sos atari fame?
