You have a lot of adf disk images you wish to transfer to your Amiga on your PC, but you have no floppy drive in your PC.

Does your PC have no floppy disk controller? If not, does your PC have a USB port?

You will have to get these from your Amiga to your PC in a form in which WinUAE can use them.

Standard size for an adf file is 880kB, or 901,120 bytes.

in the night i just have my acer aspire one (tiiiny)
in day i got my pc with floppy :-)

sanDae · 18 January 2009, 23:45

do you know where i can get any program that can give my wb a better look`?

Like prowler said you need a USB floppy drive if you haven't got one internal to transfer you files. Maybe it's really a better idea to get a CF adaptor and cartridge before you buy a USB floppy

sanDae · 18 January 2009, 23:47

i want to have a wb just like other amiga nerds, they got mp3 and even movie players
internet..ftp...many games....whload.....MUCH ram....blizzard...trapdoor ram
but that are often in amiga tower`s

sanDae · 18 January 2009, 23:48

no, i have pc with floppy tomorrow after school:-)

TCD · 18 January 2009, 23:49

Well, that involves a lot of work before you get there (and some money

). Maybe you want to go the first step by getting the CF card thingy and WHDLoad mate

sanDae · 18 January 2009, 23:49

TCD · 18 January 2009, 23:54

Is the PC with floppy drive able to run WinUAE?

An ancient version of WinUAE, or even DosUAE will be fine for what you're trying to do.

OK. When you say it works, does this mean you've actually had it running with Amiga Kickstart and Workbench files? Or are you just saying that it doesn't crash?

Do you really have no Amiga files to get it up and running?

Sorry for all the questions, but I don't want to end up writing instructions for you that you won't find useful

When you have these files, we can begin in earnest.

For the time being, follow the link that JACK98 gave you and download DMS2.32. I'll tell you what to do with that file when you're ready.

sanDae · 19 January 2009, 00:47

we`ll begin tomorrow .
