I've been trying to convert ADFs back to Amiga 880k diskettes using a Aminet software programme called: ADF-Blitz, and it doesn't seem to work!

When I execute the programme (writing ADF to disk) I get disk activity from the Amiga drive but once it's finished: the diskette is always blank! Its like the software is going through the motions but it doesn't actually do anything.

Does the ADF actually contain AmigaDOS files? Games usually come as empty or NDOS disks and need to be booted from to run the game.

Is the floppy disk write enabled? ADF-Blitzer is a very basic program. I don't know if it even checks for errors like write protection.

yes, it checks for write protection, but nothing else.

@keitha1200: TSgui is a much better program. Just use this (as I do)!
