Tenorman Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I am currently running Windows 7 and I have a hardware floppy controller and drive that I use to write out ST images using FloImg. I'm looking at upgrading to Windows 10. I know that Windows 10 does not support USB floppies, but I'm finding contradictory information about hardware floppy controllers. Has anyone out there successfully written ST disks using Windows 10? I know that moving to HXC would be better, but you'd be surprised how far you can get with a stack of blank floppies.

Tillek Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Windows 10 supports USB floppies. I don't generally try to write images but I copy files to both HD for the TT and Falcon and 720 for the Mega STE all the time with a USB floppy drive.

Tenorman Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 OK, good to know. They must have added USB floppy support back in at some point. I'd still like to see if anyone is writing images however, if somebody could confirm that FloImg or something similar works on Windows 10.

ParanoidLittleMan Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I recently installed Win 10 on my older PC, with floppy support on MBO. FloImg works fine - just need to DL latest fdrawcmd, what supports 64-bit Windows too - if did not it already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
