walter_J64bit Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) The ST could use something like SIO2PC as far as I know their isn't any thing like for the ST. I wish, I had the had the know how to make something like the SIO2PC, I could see using the ST port for Drive B and some how connect it to the PC. Is even possible? http://www.atarimax..../documentation/ Edited July 29, 2012 by walter_J64bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl_R Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 Well, there is a USB floppy emulator available here: http://lotharek.pl/product.php?pid=12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walter_J64bit Posted July 29, 2012 Author Share Posted July 29, 2012 WOW, Say that could be installed in Drive B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApolloBoy Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 WOW, Say that could be installed in Drive B. The purpose of that is to replace the main floppy drive entirely, just unplug the ST's internal floppy and then plug the USB Emulator into the same cables as the disk drive. The nice thing about it is that it works with a variety of other systems too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eeun Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) Wouldn't Ghostlink be considered somewhat comparable to sio2pc? Close but maybe not quite as versatile: Ghostlink v1.02 Beta is a link between an Atari GEM Computer (Master)and a MS-DOS computer (Slave). It requires a NULL modem cable from your ST to the PC. It fully supports the extra ports on the TT/Mega STE and comes with both ST and PC programs. The ST is the master. You can't access ST drives from the PC, but you can read and write to the PC drives from the ST. It is possible to connect up to 3 PC slaves (on different ports!) So, you can, for instance, import a picture stored on a CD-Rom (connected to a MS-DOS PC) into Calamus! Edited July 31, 2012 by eeun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telengard Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 (edited) WOW, Say that could be installed in Drive B. I think it can, but a lot of games require being drive A I believe. I just removed my floppy and brought out the cables to plug into it. It's a really nice device, even has a menu program for loading disks. I also use the device on my Amiga 500 and Tandy Coco 3. ~telengard Edited July 31, 2012 by telengard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
