I have been having problems with 3 1/2 in SONY diskettes.  I often need to copy
 files from a friend's computer (a Wyse) and then use them on my TANDY 1000 TX.
 My computer cannot read the disks after they have been copied on by his comput
er.  I have tried numerous Sony disks but none seem to work.  Any other company
's disks work.  I have tried reformatting the disks but this always fails.  Pc-
Tools and Norton Disk Doctor say the disks are fine.  The error I am receiving
from Pc-tools is - bad CRC on diskette read.  Also this disks work fine if I ju
st use them on my system soly, or on his soly.  Has anyone else had this proble
m?  Can it be cured?
