Disk Images</h2>

<hr size="4">
|
|
<p>AppleWin registers<sub style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">1</sub> the
|
|
following file types as "Disk
|
|
Images": *.do, *.dsk, *.nib, *.po and *.woz. Double-clicking
|
|
a disk image in Windows Explorer will automatically load and boot
|
|
the disk.
|
|
While older versions of
|
|
AppleWin started a new
|
|
instance of the emulator for every disk started in this manner, current
|
|
versions
|
|
of the emulator will simply replace the current disk (and reboot) if there is an
|
|
instance of
|
|
the emulator already running.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You may also drag and drop a
|
|
disk image from an Explorer
|
|
window to the AppleWin emulator window to load and boot the
|
|
disk. Dropping the image exactly on one of the drive buttons
|
|
will insert
|
|
it only into this drive
|
|
without booting. For
|
|
example: drop "Pascal1.dsk" to drive 1 and "Pascal2.dsk" to
|
|
drive 2, then click the the Run button to bring up UCSD Pascal.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>AppleWin now allows you to
|
|
open a disk as read-only.
|
|
To do this, click the checkbox for "Open as Read Only" in the Select
|
|
Disk Image dialog. This works like the physical
|
|
write-protection mechanism on a real Apple //e floppy disk.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If a Disk Image name is too
|
|
long to read in the Toolbar,
|
|
simply pause the mouse cursor over a drive button to get a
|
|
tool-tip with the full name.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Under the vertical Toolbar, are 2 LEDs, one for each floppy disk drive. The colors indicate drive status:
|
|
<li>Black: drive is off
|
|
<li>Green: drive is reading
|
|
<li>Red: drive is writing
|
|
<li>Orange: drive is reading (and floppy is write-protected)
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>By default the Disk II Controller card has the 16-sector firmware (as used by DOS 3.3 and ProDOS). But if a WOZ image that internally identifies as 13-sector format (eg. DOS 3.2) is put into drive 1, then from the start-up/logo screen (or the next reset), the Disk II Controller card's firmware will automatically be switched to the old 13-sector firmware, allowing the disk to boot. And it will automatically switch back if a non-13-sector WOZ (or any non-WOZ) image is put into drive 1 and the machine is reset.<br>
|
|
NB. There is no support for this feature for non-WOZ images.

<p><sub style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold">1</sub> To register the file types in Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 10,
|
|
you will need to run AppleWin with elevated privileges. This only needs to be done once.

|
Right click the AppleWin.exe icon and select 'Run as Administrator'.</p>
