RetroB1977 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 I recently got a Laser 128 and a PC 5.25" floppy drive, I plan to put the drive in a Pentium 2 to write disks for my Laser 128. I'm having trouble finding software to write Apple ][ disks on PC, what is the best piece of software to do so? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick3092 Posted May 16, 2023 Share Posted May 16, 2023 Better yet, get a USB serial cable (and appropriate cable for the 128) and use ADTPro to write images on your Laser from any modern pc. You can buy all the cables you need from the site below, and the software is free. Trying to do this with 98 and a pc floppy drive will be an exercise in futility. https://adtpro.com 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought I saw someone write Apple ][ disks but I guess not. 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works a lot better than you think it might. That's how I got started with apple again once I got a new system and built up software. My original one was stolen along with some Atari stuff during a forced move quite a while back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
