Readdsk/writedsk
Posted: Thu Sep 17, 2009 11:05 pm
Hello,
i have a problem with readdsk/writedsk. Windows 7 64 bits does not run these binaries : It's a 32 bits binary, windows refuse to start that.
I tried readdsk under dosbox, but it does not run, it only loops on 256 tracks and stops (but readdsk does not read the floppy).
I started a VirtualBox virtual machine with a ms dos 6.22, readdsk is launched but nothing happens.
I think it's mainly because these tools call Bios directly to read the floppy.
Do you know a software which could runs under windows :
Rawrite does not work, and winimage don't read the floppy.
If there is no solution, i'll use a dos floppy to boot my PC under MS DOS.
Any ideas ?
