Floppy disk problem

The SP1200 are having problem loading the disks I use. Sometimes it having problem loading the software and sometimes all the segments I saved on it. Sometimes it works fine. Saving on the disks are no problem, just loading them up. The original disks that came from factory is working fine. Im using fujifilm labeld diskettes. Are the diskettes the problem or is it the floppydrive? Maybe it doesn't save the data properly? Maybe there any label of disks that works better? I dont know, diskettes are not so easy to find in my city anymore

We've talked on this before and there was no poll but I think the consensus is that it doesn't matter. Just try to get a good brand. Personally I've been using Verbatim datalife 2DD and never had a problem. Memorex HD fucked me over.
