Have you considered using a Gotek drive?

Not sure about EasyADF but I use "adf2disk" to write ADF images to floppy disk.

Download adf2disk from Aminet. Unzip it and put the adf2disk file into C.
Put a blank floppy disk into DF0.
Open shell, navigate to where your ADF files are and type:

adf2disk name_of_file.adf

Select ADF, then click transfer to floppy.

Seriously? Unfortunately this is where your problem lies, you're not sufficiently explaining yourself properly.

You asked about "copying games onto disk" and that you had EasyADF. So we naturally assume that you have ADF images of games on your hard drive since that is what EasyADF is for. Programs like EasyADF, adf2disk and Image2Disk are for managing ADF files. If you don't have ADF files then you need to grab some off the internet, they're as common as dirt. Then you can use these programs for writing the ADF's to disk.

I would suggest that if you're not familiar with ADF files, then Google around on the internet and learn what they are. Having an Amiga means that you are going to have to be patient and take it slow and teach yourself how it works. Again searching on the internet will help you. I would also suggest that if you have want to run WHDLoad installed games from the hard drive that you get a memory expansion or an accelerator like the Vampire 600V2, Furia or ACA620 so that you can. Yes it will cost you extra but it will be worth it.

You can show all file, not just adf's in EasyADF (click the text box to the left of Zz button). What format are they in .dms? .zip? .adz? .lha?

You need to give more information, so we can help better.

I don't actually know lol! I know there not in ADF, but couldn't say what format exactly. there all WHDLOAD, maybe SUPADUPER could explain better than myself. I know you can get ADFs from the internet, but the games are already installed on the CF CARD and I cant get ADFS onto the 600 as my PCMCIA adapter wont work! this is the perilous situation my 600 finds itself!
