Classic Workbench Question
I started installing Classic Workbench and its installed and seems to be fine despite this error that came up, is this anything to worry about?
The installation completed ok it said. There was also another similar error thrown up but I didnt get time to screengrab it. |

Hmm think I may have messed up somewhere, I reset and when loading the ClassicWB.uae again it just boots into Kick3.1, was I supposed to save the config again before first reboot?

You mean it boot's to standart 3.1 Workbench? maybe you have
the Workbench disk in df0? I have the error for the missing generic input too, but the install seems to be correct and it boots straight to CWB. |

You installed the necessary WB files from a valid (unmodified) original WB 3.0/3.1 disk image? After copying a few copyrighted original files you should remove the WB disk image and WinUAE boots straight into ClassicWB after a reset. Never seen this message on your screenshot.

I am not very familiar with ClassicWB, but I don't remember the installation being anything special. It just checks for a valid WB 3.1 disk image, possibly copies files from it, and then voila.
Which version did you download (LITE, FULL...) ? I think UAE is the one to choose, isn't it R-N ? I can send you the HDF "post-configured" if you want. It's less than 30Megs rar'd, bundled with the Hardware part of the custom config (oh noes !) I use myself; So you would be able to load it in a snap from WinUAE (theoretically). Note that I have this in my Amiga PC folders merely for testing purposes. It looks nice though, compared to 3.1 ! Also, your FPS counter should not fluctuate like this from the default value : 50. Doesn't look too good, but at least you don't have that inferior border bug. Last edited by NewDeli; 07 October 2009 at 05:06. |

Could be possible. You can also build you own config for this, you are not bound with the provided one. Select a A1200 Quickstart config with Fastram and add the (hopefully) already activated HDF as DH0: in the hard drive tab, then save it and boot.

About the original error : http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=556174#post556174
Just use another (unmodified) disk. |

A useless missing generic printer driver file? Then it's probably easier for Kitty to reinstall a fresh inactivated HDF, with a proper WB image.

I figured out the problem I was having with Classic Workbench.
Quote:
If its wrong it boots back to Kickstart, if its right, well it boots into Classic Workbench. Here is my end result There is still one small problem, I couldnt get the config to boot automatically as default, even though i renamed it Default.uae ? |

By 'boot' you mean start automatically? When you renamed your config 'default.uae' you should just click on 'Start' and it should just do that

damn it, now its crashed lol, also it wont load the hdf now, I dunno what I done, Classic Workbench dont agree with me, I think I will use my previous WinUAE, at least that actually works correctly lol
Is there a way to just have the Classic Workbench background wallpaper on a regular install of winuae with workbench 3.1 installed on the hardrive? |

There's no real gain in booting directly the WB with the default config, except if for some reason you want the GUI turned off all the way through (it's a feature used in game frontends, most notably).
The "default" config should be highlighted when you start WinUAE, then click load and it will be into memory. WHDLoad should be found in C:, but it won't hurt to update it with the latest version. |
