DiskWrite1.02

While generating disk images is a common task for most users, performing this operation on an old computer equipped with a floppy disk might pose some problems, since many tools designed for this particular purpose run exclusively in the command console or under DOS.

A forthright GUI for writing image files to floppy disks

DiskWrite comes to the rescue by providing a simplistic GUI to enable you to perform this task on a Windows PC. As such, it can assist you in creating bootable floppy disk images without a lot of effort.Its compatibility range includes multiple floppy disk image formats, starting with the common 1,44 MB disk and ending with the 360KB floppy. Its minimalistic interface comprises just a few buttons and no menus whatsoever, so using it shouldn't pose any problems.

Very easy to work with

The application is capable of automatically detecting the connected floppy drive, displaying the corresponding drive letter within its main window. Thus, all that's left for you to do is to browse for the desired disk image you want it to write to the floppy. There are various supported file formats that you can load, namely IMG, FLP, DSK, 144 or 288.Once the desired file is loaded, DiskWrite starts validating it using the integrated MD5 hash reader and retrieves the corresponding checksum. Then, you can write the image to a diskette by simply pressing on the designated button.

Integrated console version

For more experienced users who are keen on using the console to carry out such operations, DiskWrite also bundles a command-line version within the package. While it might seem more difficult to use, it features a simple syntax and intelligible options that can help you successfully complete the task.To conclude with, DiskWrite is a convenient method of writing image files to a floppy disk and creating bootdisks, providing a more user-friendly alternative to DOS tools.
