macally batwing?

Bidding on this on ebay.  I have an old macintosh se fdhd in my basement.  If I win there are no drivers.  How can I download them.  There is a website.  And I have a usb floppy laying around somewhere.  But they dont directly copy from a pc.  Something to do with the resource fork.  And the se does not connect to the internet so what to do.

I figured it out nevermind.  I downloaded it here from my windows 10 pc.  I thought windows does not work but this time it worked.  I formatted a usb stick fat 32.  And transfered the hqx to the usb stick. Then I remembered I had an old ibook g3 900.  The stick loaded in osx 10.3.  The file opened and extracted the driver.  The HQX was intact and not broken surprisingly.

There's also HFV Explorer, which can be used to wrap/unwrap HQX files, and can work with apple formatted floppy diskettes/other media. (as long as it is oldschool HFS, and not HFS+)

I think I have seen that before thanks.  I just remember nothing working.  Maybe those were damaged or different type of files.
