Hopefully last dumb newbie question.

I recently bought an Apple II GS (ROM 1), floppy drives, no
HD, especially because I wanted to play an ancient text-based game for the
Apple II ("The Mist" by Steven King). The game comes on a single-sided, 64K 
5 1/4 format floppy disk.

Thanks to the help and generosity of members of this n.g., the computer and 
all drives are working properly. I still have the following problems with the 
game, however.

1. If I boot up the system with the GS OS (5.04), the computer cannot          
     read the game disk, even though it can read other 5 1/4 disks.            
     Instead, it just asks me if I want to format the disk.

2. The game disk itself is bootable. If I boot up with the game disk, however, 
        the Apple II GS "greet screen" (the initial screen that tells you it's 
        a GS,  what ROM it is, etc.) remains on the screen in garbled form 
        even after I start the game, interfering with my ability to read the 
        game text (I hope I made that clear).

 As things stand, the game is playable (barely), but not enjoyable.

Any suggestions? Many thanks.

Best regards to all,
