The older Window Oses (98, NT) will let you format a floppy at 720K, which Amigas with Cros-Dos installed can read and write to. Also, if you have the oft-named and ever popular (but wildly expensive) 'catweasel' you can do all that and more, in both machines.

BTW, not sure I made this clear. After I format the HD with OS3.9 I would take it out and put it in my A1200.


Oops, sorry. Just re-read your original post. For some reason, I got the idea you were referring to a FD, not an HD. No advice there, I'm afraid!
