Hello,

the DSS-1 uses 800K Disks, not 720k. The PC drive electronics itself is 
-able- to read/write them. CopyQM -also- writes the Disks under 95/98/ME 
into 800K format, but XP doesn\ufffdt allow a "direct hardware access" onto 
the drive, so CopyQM won\ufffdt work. I have modified Glen Stegners 
DSS1-Disk-Images into "non-CoypQM"-800K-Images, because no other program 
than copyqm is able to write copyqm-images (there is a prog outside 
which can do that, but it also won\ufffdt work on 2000/XP). A direct 1:1 copy 
from copyqm-image=>FDD is -impossible-, cause the copyqm-images have a 
special header inside, which would be also written on the DSS-1 disk and 
which the DSS would not understand.

So the only thing you\ufffdll need is a Linux machine or at least a Linux 
LiveCD and my modified images. Then I\ufffdll give you the instructions how 
to write them.

Greetings

Stef
