I think we've discussed this before. Sorry if we're re-treading old
ground.
I'm trying to read a disk an old double-density PC formatted disk on a
high-density drive. I can read the directory and certain small files just
fine, but any files that are larger than a few sectors (or perhaps that
span a track) return "Sector Not Found" errors. What is the deal with
that?
This is under DOS 6.22. Is there a way to get DOS to recognize that this
is a double-density disk and to perform whatever internal magic is
necessary to read the disk properly? Or is this an issue of hardware?
