I have this on disc based format, however when I purchased it untested it doesn't work, it gives a Read error, retry,ignore and was wondering if it's fixable? The box is in great condition, so I'm kinda gutted. Would a cotton bud and Isopropyl alcohol work?

Better than alcohol is distilled water. Alcohol can eat the surface above the magnetic subtract. I had better results with water than with alcohol...

Hmm failing that, I wonder if anyone here can make a new disk copy of this package?  :-[

If you can provide the 3 inch disc I can make you a new set.
