I don't think any of the CoCo/Dragon disk writing programs will work 
under any NT type Windows (NT/2000/XP/2003), because there is no way of 
programming them to deal with 256 byte sectors. However I believe 95/98 
& Me don't suffer from this problem.

What you can do to get round this however is to make a boot floppy with 
windows (for XP this is an option when you format), and boot with this, 
as I believe it is the dos part of windows Me, which should allow you to 
use the Dos based disk programs.

HTH

Phill.
