Hmm, it makes perfect sense.

Your A1200's drive can't distinguish between DD and HD disks, but your PC can.

If you format a HD disk in your A1200, it'll be recognised and formatted as DD. The PC will try to read it as a HD disk, unless you cover the second hole (which is the HD indicator hole).

Good to hear you got it working..
