Got it, OmniFlop works (with my images) !

First you have to replace the original XP-Floppy-driver with the 
Omniflop-Driver (system/hardware/device manager/disk drive/left 
click/update drivers/manual driver selection/locate your unzipped 
folder/select the .inf-File), then start omniflop=>format disk=>select 
a:/ select the DSS-1 format, after successfull operation select "write 
disk", then choose the .img-File, even set the format to "DSS-1", voil\ufffd! 
You -must- pre-format the disk.
