[comp.sources.wanted] Driver for Single Density Floppies

rs2@houxv.ATT.COM (R.SWITZER) (02/04/89)

Does anyone know of a driver which will
format/read/write single density floppies
for MS-DOS?

Any information would be much appreciated.
If this had been discussed previously, please
excuse me because I have not previously
subscribed to this group.

Thanks,
Robert Switzer

Don't think you can do it with the hardware.
The fdc won't do single density.
Don't know why they picked that one to design around.
I had a non-stock controller on my PC about 5 years ago.  Even had 8"
drives - but no SD.
