Load/write image from/to USB floppy disk drive?

[wootletootle]

Is is possible to do this with USBIT?
The utility does not identify the USB FDD...
If not is there an alternative? (DiskXS does not work)

Thank you.

USB Image Tool only works with flash drives. Why does DiskXS not work? Is there an error message?

Thanks Alex. In GUI mode under WinXP, DiskXS (v.0.71a) apparently identifies the USB FDD (3.5" floppy disk - 1440 Kb)
together with BPB and FAT, but as a blank diskette (0 folders, 0 files, 0 bytes total). No error
message is generated. If I try to load load image from disk (F7) I then get an error message
"No floppy drives found!"

I notice you came across some problems when running recent versions of DiskXS under WinXP.
Maybe there is still a bug? Do you have a command line debug version of the code?

Thanks again,
Roger

Well, I haven't been working on DiskXS since 2005 and never tested it on USB Floppys. I guess there is some general detection error with USB floppy drives, but I don't own one to test it. Maybe an alternative program can help you with your task.
