In Reply to: Blank Disks for Apple ][ game copies? posted by Richard Garriott on November 04, 19100 at 10:18:53:
: New PC high density disks do not seem to be able to be copied onto by my old Apple ][. Anyone know why? Please Email me, if you can advise me on what disks to buy where to make copies of my early software development.
: Thanks,

The reason you cant write on those discs is the different magnetic coating on them. You should find
single or double density discs.
Another approach could be to change the values of cerain resistors/capacitors on the disc drive circuitry
to adjust the read/write heads currents to values suitable for high density magnetic medium.
Any body has practical advice on that?
