- How can I write Atari disks on an IBM PC? I know that it is possible, but I
- don't remember how. Also, is there any way to format them on a PC? It has
- been almost 5 years since I used the Atari regularly, and the disks have all
- gone bad. Because of this, I have no way to boot the thing up! What are the
- versions of DOS used now? What's the best? I have an Atari 400 & an 800XL,
- with and Indus GT disk drive. If there isn't a way to write a bootable disk
- on a PC, would someone be willing to mail me one? I would really appreciate
- it.
