Ok, I will do ou up a few PD Disks too!
Atari are almost compatible with PC Disks, but I doubt the 1.4MB will be compatile with your STE?
The STE has 720k Drives as standard, and NOT 1.4MB, so unless your STE has been modified, then no, you cannot read the disks.
If both the STE, and the PC have the same size floppies, on the same size drive, then you will probably be able to read the disks with either computer, but try to use the ATARI to format as a PC disk!
I dont know if this is nessecary, but I myself have never had any trouble with disks, going between the Atari TT / and any of the PC's under Win95/98 or Linux, and the only trouble that you will/may get, is that sometimes files seem to appear from nowhere, and these files will be incomprehensible and this is only the long-filenames rubbish coming up, but they disappear under Magic, or you just dont select them!
Can you understand any of thet rubbish?
No! - neither can i?
