This site has made me go through the depths of my garage, storage boxes etc to re-discover all my old games. I'd even forgotten how many old games I had and even forgot evening owning some of them. Just right now I opened another old box and said "whoa...there's Rise of the Dragon and Magic Candle".

Anyway, surprisingly as I go through my old floppies I'm finding they work but anyone recommend a good way to archive them? Seems like keeping the floppies as disk images and mounting is the best solution but dunno if I feel like paying $30 to buy winimage for something I'd use rarely. Aside from winimage, anyone know of an alternative solution? I tried out a couple freeware apps but I didn't find the ideal solution. The only freeware mounting app I found couldn't create images and wouldn't mount images made with another freeware app that did create images.

I tried rawwritewin but that only allowed me to manipulate from pre-existing disk images. Virtual Floppy Driver only mounted images, and can't create images. Another freeware app created images but Virtual Floppy Driver couldn't mount them.

What's everyone else doing with thier old games?
