I have a 486 PC with 5.25 drive , 3.25 drive , and CDROM
I want to create some 5.25 Diskettes from .IMG files located on a CDROM disk.

My PC is running DOS 6.22 and Win3.11

What programs do I need to create the 5.25 Diskettes from .IMG files ?

Hi there! 🙂

I'm often using WinImage on my old PCs.

Alternatively, Disc Copy Fast on my XT in plain DOS..
In the past, in the 90s, it was QCopy 4.0 on my 286, too.

WinImage 3 runs on Windows 3.1 and 286+..

Good luck! 🙂👍

Edit: For very very old or obscure formats, there's Teledisk..
Teledisk was a floppy copier utility from the era of CP/M, Macintosh, Atari ST etc.

Brutman's DskImage is a simple and straight forward tool that also runs from DOS

Eew, it's being written in C.. Real men use Turbo Pascal! Or Assembler. :D
Just kidding. The more utilities available, the better. Thanks for the link! ^^
