File downloads

Help!  I'm new to the group, and started researching messages from 
the beginning to resolve my problem.  I purchased a disklavier grand 
with control cart in 1991.  I would love to be able to download new 
music and upload some files as well, but working with Windows XP, it 
seems impossible to format my 2DD disks correctly.  Windows will not 
let me format a 2DD disk.  If I format the disk on the disklavier's 
control cart drive, my computer won't read it or let me transfer 
files to it without reformatting.  Obviously, Yamaha has overcome 
this problem with their free downloads from their site.  I'm able to 
download on a 2DD disk, convert it with the control unit, and play it 
on the piano.

Someone must have encountered and solved these issues in the past?  
I'm fairly computer literate, but I can't seem to see through this 
problem!

Thanks!
