Acorn Disk Images?
Hi, I have lots of floppy discs for the Archimedies which I want to store on my windows PC as floppy disc image files. Any idea how to do this.
Oooops, forgot to mention they are 3.5 inch standard Acorn formatted floppy discs

Why not load your Floppys to a file and burn to CD-R, or just keep in a folder on your PC.

I have never heard of Acorn. If it was in windows, or an older version of dos or windows I would suggest using Alcohol 120% or Power ISO and create image files of the floppies. Sorry I can't help with Acorn.

Thats tough - are you talking about the disks over 5 inches?
(the real thin ones?) if so, a modern computer wouldnt read them cause the drive wouldnt have the software, or even the cable to connect to a modern pc for a start. The last game I played on an Acorn /BBC computer was a red bus game lol, but thats going off topic sorry..
