Adrian,

 

Thank you for your comment.  Can I ask how you format on the disklavier?
Is there a menu?

Depending on which model you have, one or more of the following should
do the trick. 

1. put a piece of opaque tape over the hole in the disk - opposite to
the "write protect" tab. Try reformatting on the piano. 

2. if that doesn't work, put the disk in a Windows PC/Laptop and
reformat to 720Kb (later disks are formatted to 1.44Mb). You may still
need to put the piece of tape over the hole on the disk. 

3. if you do manage to get hold of unformatted double density disks, the
piano should ask you if you want to format it automatically.

That will fix the problem, while maintaining your access to the group.
