   Oct 9, 2020 · I was under the impression that Atari 800 games came in three forms: Cart Files - ROM/COM/XEX/CART. Disk Files - ATR/ATX. Tape Files - CAS. But then I stumbled upon some COM games that (according to AtariMania) were never released on cartridge: Air Support, Desmond's Dungeons, Encounter, Ghost Chaser, Zeppelin.

   What floppy format does Atari ST use?

   • On Atari ST, floppy formats of 800, 820KB were very popular. Unfortunately, modern Windows as XP, 2K and Vista can not work with such floppies (as Windows 95 did). Worst is that such floppies usually are accepted by system, but reading or writing on them will result in corrupted files. Second situation: floppy image files.

   How many 'tracks' are on an Atari disk?

   • Typically an Atari disk will contain 40 'tracks'. Each of these 'tracks' is a thin concentric circular area on the disk, larger at the edges of the disk, smaller at the hub. The computer in the Atari disk drive typically divides each of these circles up into 18 separate parts called 'sectors'. Each sector can hold 128 bytes of your data.

   How to format a floppy on Atari?

   • Type: format a: /t:80 /n:9 and you will get 720KB floppy usable on all Ataris (except those rares with single sided floppy). Other way is to format floppy on Atari. But I recommend to use only specialized format programs which have PC compatible formats in list. Use always DD (marked often as 1MB) floppies.

   How do I create a 16 megabyte Atari Hard Disk?

   • Create a new blank disk image as usual, except this time select a custom size. Select 65535 sectors, double density. This will create a 16 megabyte Atari hard disk image. MAKE SURE you have 16MB of free space on the PC to create the new ATR file. What Atari DOS Systems will support a large hard disk?

   Does Reading Atari ST 720 KB floppies work on PC?

   • Reading Atari ST 720 KB floppies works sometimes, but fails if the floppy has been low-level formatted with some format tools. This is because PC floppy disk controllers are less permissive than Atari ones. But floppies formatted with the Atari desktop should always work fine on PC.
