Hi! Is there any program or way to read 1.44 MB HD Mac Floppies on Windows XP? I tried TransMac, Basilisk II and Sheepshaver, and nothing worked. Thanks for you help!
You really don't want an emulator to access a PC floppy drive directly, there are all kinds of glitchy problems.
What you should do instead is use a tool like WinImage to create a 1.44mb floppy image file from a Macintosh floppy disk, feed that image file to your emulator, then write the image back to a disk when you are done.
(Basillisk II at least used to be able to access floppy drives directly on Windows 9x, but it was slower than a real Mac floppy drive and ran in to all kinds of read/write glitches).

On Windows, Mac disk can dump it as Floppy Disk image by using Winimage

I dumped Sid Meier's Civilization for Macintosh (1992) (3.5-1.44mb) in 2015.
