Hi all,
I recently bought a TRS-80 model 4 at a flea market. After cleaning it up and repairing the power supply (it had a bad solder joint on the +12V line, which I understand is pretty common) it's in good working shape again. But, I haven't got any disks for it. None at all. Is there a method for making TRSDOS disks using a PC? I have a Windows 98 PC I normally use for archiving 5.25" floppies. It has an HD 1.44 MB TEAC that's proven very reliable at reading and writing 360KB DOS disks as well as a few other common formats. I'm not sure if it will work reliably to make TRSDOS disks or not.
I've searched around for how to do this, but I think my Google-fu is failing me.
If anyone has any pointers on making TRSDOS disks, please let me know!
