I recently obtained some old 5 1/4-inch floppy drives for PCs. If I
install one in my PC, is there some Windows utility which will let me
use it to write data onto it in a way that'll be readable by Apple II
or Commodore 64 (or 128) computers? More specifically, given this drive
and a blank floppy and a disk image file of an old 8-bit game, will I
be able to write the image onto the floppy such that it'll boot the old
computer it was made for?
