Chris, assuming that your system will run other programs OK, you
are probably having a problem with either the disk itself (bad news)
or the drive speed.  The copy protection on FS2 was pretty unforgiving,
and your drive may be a bit out of calibration.

There are several copy programs that contain disk speed checks.

The A2 FAQ has directions on how to set the speed using one of
these programs, or even using the "strobe" disk on the bottom of
the drive spindle pulley.
