I've tried the program, and I've been able to read and write 3 1/2 floppies
from within windows XP.  I haven't been able to read 5 1/4 35/40 tracks
floppies in a 1.2mb drive yet. I've been sending suggestions and exchanging
emails with the author, so there's hope yet :)

There's a new floppy driver and some tools (OmniFlop & OmniDiskXP) to do so
at

The question was if someone has allready tried it.
