troubleshooting EMXP

Not quite sure how I'd execute
That Dos622.exe from within windows
So that I can then use EMXutil
Gonna experiment
If worse comes to worse there's
HxC floppy emulator
Or internal IDE Zip in the Emax

You would have to put it in the group files, or in your mail provide a link to the picture.

esynthesist is a member on the group and is the developer of EMXP and you can contact him directly through his website also…

With that said- I have never tried formatting a floppy with EMXP.
Usually I format a floppy on the EMAX, then use EMXUTIL or EMX (or EMXP) to write the OS file to the already formatted disk.

Have you tried that?
