I bought 100 2DD discs with games to amiga, but I can't format then on mpc60.

Announcement appears:
"This disc is unusable since a defect was found in the area reserved for file directory. Please insert another disc and try again."

What I must do, if I want use this discs ?

I dunno, but I needed disks for my SP1200 so I put an ad on a s/h site and within like 3 days I got two guys who were willing to send me a bunch of disks for just postage costs. I now have about 350 disks and it cost me about $15,- or something silly like that. I had more people e-mail me to send me more, but I declined... 350 disks is a lot - I use one disk for every beat I do.

My advice would be to spend another $30,- on a s/h Amiga; it's SO much fun to play games on. Make sure you have 'supercars' and 'gods'. And a couple of joysticks of course.

Oh, and get a cheap card reader for the MPC...
