Sometimes DIS 3.3 disks will boot while ProDOS disks won't if the drive
speed is a little off. ProDOS is more sensitive than DOS 3.3 in that
regard. Find a friend with an Apple II and try your disks on his computer.
If they work, then ask if you can attach your drive to his computer and run
a utility to check and adjust drive speed (such as Copy II Plus). Most
5.25" drives can be opened up, and there is a small speed adjustment screw
you can turn while the drive speed test is running.
