#AMIGA – PC PROBLEM
4 messages in this thread
I am trying to find a program who will allow to read an amiga formatted
disk in a PC. Do you know somebody who has done that or has even a start of
solution. The other side solution exists with a program named crossdos who
allows an amiga to read MSDOS disk but it will not help me. I have already
contacted a lot of people and nobody seems to know how to do that. I can
not imagine there is not ONE guy in all the PC community who also need
that. thanks for your help philippe

Yup. Hard to believe, but true. CrossDos will allow you to format and read
MS DOS disks on the Amiga. But there is no program in all the MS DOS world
to read Amiga disks on an MS DOS machine!
You go your way . . . I'll go Maui

Well, I mentioned this to Philippe over in another forum, but my
understanding of the situation is not that a PC guy/gal hasn't made the
effort or anything, but that that PC hardware (or something like that) is
actually incompatible. Can anybody confirm or deny this? I believe I read
this in the docs of my copy of crossdos but cannot find the manual at the
moment.
Philippe,
Perhaps you're unaware that crossdos allows you to _write_ MS-DOS disks
as well.
