There's no support for 1.44 floppies I'm afraid. The driver software
and manual is available if you look around though.

It's a fun card to play with. PC floppies are huge for an 8bit Apple.
The RAM on the board can be used as a RAM disk when not in PC
emulation. You can even use it as turbo XT if you're into that sort of
thing. ;)
