You need a PC with an onboard floppy controller i.e. one that plugs directly into the PC's motherboard. USB floppy drives don't work; so don't waste your time buying one. I thought I was on a winner because my main PC has a floppy controller! But unfortunately I couldn't get Win-7 to write even a PC floppy; so used an old XP PC instead.

Writing Atari software on a PC floppy is pretty simple task, there's an Atari programme specific for the job (sorry the name escapes me just now).

ok sorted now guys i purchased a standard 1.44mb floppy drive for my windows 7 pc and used a program called floimg, it worked a treat, would be great if this type of proggy was available on the amiga?

Thanks to all who posted!

On Atari ST platform it is quite easy to write ST images back to floppy with the proper driver and program (FLOIMG from Ppera is great). On Amiga is different...it is better to use the Amiga instead of the PC to do that. There are lot of tools that write ADF files back to floppy. If you want to use a PC, you should need this:

or a Catweasel.
