For floppies there's rawrite for windows. I haven't used that in a
very long time, so don't remember if it let's you write to any disk,
provided it has a drive letter, or if it just goes for the floppy
drive. I also remember there's a port of dd for windows, though I
don't remember how you get it, maybe it came with djgpp, maybe it's
possible to get a stand-alone exe. What I do remember about it, is
that it wasn't as useful as you'd expect. If you tried to write
something to a:, or com1, it would throw an error at you. I suspect
that's because it would need raw access to the destination, but I'm
not sure how you'd give it that under windows. Sorry I can't help more
than that.
