[Funkstar De Luxe]

Hi,

I'm completely new at this, all I want to know is if it is possible to read atari ST discs on a PC? If so, what do I use to do it? Also, any idea how much I can get for a PAL 1040STe mint, complete, and in box? thanks guys

You need 3,5 inch DD floppydiscs. Put the disc in drive a: and format them on the PC with:

 

Format a: /T:80 /N:9

 

So the discs are readable on PC and ST.

I saved a 1040 STF and a Mega ST from going to the garbagecan

A ST is worthy about 20EURO. A Falcon 030 is sold on EBAY-Germany for 200 EURO today.

For standatrd formatted disk (720KB) - no problem, format is identical on ST and PC. You can format disk on ST - from desktop.

Another format - I dont know, is any program for PC...

It seems, the STE is more worthy to ATARI freaks....
