Shadow of the beast

Hello everyone, I'm completely new to forums so please be gentle :-)

I was wandering if any one could help me with a small but annoying problem.
I cannot get shadow of the beast to work on WinUAE I have no problem with any other game just this one so far. I'm a complete novice by the way please excuse my ignorance.

Cheers
Evel

its starts to load as you would expect, it gets as far as the red screen with the beasts. I believe this is where it should ask for disc 2 but it just stays at this point. not sure if that's any help?

Try another crack, guess the one from "The Band" should run fine. And make sure you use a Amiga 500 quickstart setting (A500 most common, compatibility slider most left, start in quickstart mode box ticked).

You need to press fire button at this point, then the music will fade out and then the screen will fade out, and then will request disk 2

Heya Evel Knievel,

Welcome to EAB

Retro has already nailed it as per usual

...just use the "The Band" trained version with only 1 disk drive enabled and a standard A500 configuration. Job done!!!
