Hi!
For some reason the software for the HxC USB (version 1.3.1.0) doesn't like the disk images on the Warp 4 CD. Although the images are just standard 1474560 byte files with the usual sector layout, the target machine isn't able to read anything when they are loaded with the "Load" button. Loading as a raw image (MFM, 2H, 80T, 18S, 300rpm, 500kbit, 512b) works fine though.
Oh, and one minor GUI issue: It's nice that there are finally buttons instead of the horrible forced drag-and-drop, but it would be nicer if both the buttons and menus had accelerators.

Did you select the right drive select source? (Menu -> Settings -> "Drive ID")Unseen wrote:Hi!

If so, can you try to load the image in raw mode with the gap 3 set to 84 ?

Is the program supposed to reset the mode occasionally even when "Auto" is not checked?
No problems with both 50 (default) and 84.If so, can you try to load the image in raw mode with the gap 3 set to 84 ?

Re: OS/2 disk image troubles
i have just received the file. the main problem is the extension of the file:
the *.DSK files are MSX image for the hxc floppy emulator software.
change it to *.img for pc image disk.
