  • The image is for 5.25 inch floppy disk.
    When i tried write to 3.5 inch floppy disk via WinImage 10.00 , i can't, and WinImage give notification: The current image format is not supported by the disk drive.

    Anybody know how to write it to a 3.5 inch floppy disk?
  • WinImage supports resizing standard DOS formatted images. You just have to explicitly tell it to do that.
  • You don't need to write to a floppy disk. Just extract the spinrite.exe file and copy it to what ever media you need. There is no copy protection or anything like that.
