if it work, then toy have to buy new floppy drive. like a Thosiba, Teac.

First of all, thanks for your reply and your links smile

I give that Chinese a try as I found one for 6 € and then I give a feedback here. I want to use it for making Atari Cubase disks. I live in Germany, that’s why I used Amazon.de big_smile

how about the sandberg usb floppy drev does it also work?

Nope, still doesn't work, which makes this whole thing pretty strange. I tested different kinds of floppies too but got the same results.

no that is not strange it is because the drev does not support 720kb disk.

Yeah my floppies finally work but my Waves compressor plug-ins don't. I find this pretty hilarious.

i have made 720kb disk under XP, win 8, win8.1. but sometimes windows just work like crap and need a reinstall.

hi
i am sorry that it don't work for you,

if i what to make sure that it work,
then i first i put sticky tape over high density hole,
i format it on the ST, and transfere the file from the pc to the Floppy.

make sure that the files are made under the 8.3 file naming or else the ST F..k up when you try to open it.

good luck and i hope that you get it to work.

I FUCKEN GOT IT. You have no idea how happy I am haha.

For some reason when I updated to windows 10 yesterday the "FORMAT A: /T:80 /N:9" process worked perfectly. I have no idea why, but hey. Time to make some sweet sweet jams.

Thanks so much for the help yall.

I ended up getting the Toshiba model you're using. I'm still having problems formatting 1.44s and it can't read my old 720s.

I'm convinced it isn't the driver that's the problem anymore so I wondered what exactly your process of running something on your atari is. How you transfer the files / format the floppy and such.
