   Look in the support files for a file called FDD1_360.DSK.  If you assign   
   this to a logical drive, such as drive :1 in the emulator, it will use your   
   B: drive.   
      
   Haven't checked recently, but the pseudo DSK files for linking to physical   
   drives was described in the emulator documentation on David's site.
