Got it, OmniFlop works (with my images) !

First you have to replace the original XP-Floppy-driver with the
Omniflop-Driver (system/hardware/device manager/disk drive/left
click/update drivers/manual driver selection/locate your unzipped
folder/select the .inf-File), then start omniflop=>format disk=>select
a:/ select the DSS-1 format, after successfull operation select "write
disk", then choose the .img-File, even set the format to "DSS-1", voilá!
You -must- pre-format the disk.
