Okay, downloaded the RAR, extracted it and mounted it with Daemon Tools. Works a treat. If you only need to file or two from that CD, let me know and I'll upload it to the zone.

I can confirm, that some burning software has problem with this ISO(Amiga cdrom - 10 1995 - bbs - Amiga.iso), old version of "CDBurnerXP" dont like this ISO, but after an update it is recognized.

Just to clarify something. If you first mount it with Deamon tools and then burn it, it will work perfectly.
BUT, you need ALL the files and then extract the first .RAR "not really true" file as it will automatic look for each .rar file "married" to the package. I have them all and tried them just to make sure it works. Last edited by 1time; 23 April 2011 at 00:12. |

Strangely enough with having the problems with this ISO that I've had I just yesterday downloaded Daemon Tools LITE, which I'd never downloaded before or heard of, yet virtually at the same time I downloaded WinRAR, which I have used before, but how coincidental is that. So, I've now installed Daemon Tools LITE, and sure enough without further problem the ISO file was mounted, and I was able to extract the files I had been trying to track down from the virtual CD. I may try to extract the DVDs once I have all the parts downloaded, but they surely are a weird way to upload a DVD image, as a collective/hive, but notwithstanding I appreciate those who have put in the effort for these files to be made available for us all to benefit from. So, A big thank you to them, and a big thank you to all of you who have pointed me in the right direction, it is all very much appreciated, and of course if I could help anyone in the future with a similar problem I can now offer some expertise on the subject.

How 'old' was the CDBurnerXP software you used? Are we talking about the last update to that software being prior to 2000 or only last year, or somewhere nearer to either timeframe? What I really mean is, the Amiga software hasn't been updated for a while, years in some cases, so was the CDBurnerXP package as old as MakeCD, or BurnIt, or even FryingPan? Was there any other Amiga or PC or Mac or Linux CD mastering software you also tried it with, that should be avoided due to the file not being recognised correctly? By the way, many thanks for taking the trouble to check the file, Mai Last edited by TCD; 23 April 2011 at 09:14. Reason: Back to back posts merged. Use multi-quote. |

LOL have a good sleep tucker and wake up refreshed heheheh best laff I`ve had this morning
now I not tested any of this on the amiga so I do see your point there but I can confirm on the pc everything works as it should and I don`t use nero as it became to bloated for my needs Just because you don`t understand how files were spread in years gone by when we were lucking if one repository could hold all of 4gig dons`t mean that the method dos not work also we have broadband now as I expect u have. Imagen downloading all those bits of boondoks only to find 3 parts were corrupted u would only need to get those parts and not the full archive as learning curves go for getting files this is fairly easy edit I use totalcommader with plugins to allow me see in archives,ISOs,adfs,dms,lhas and lzxs well worth checking out it also dose alot of other usefull stuff when working with files |

Thanks all, I've managed to extract the files I was after with just the Amiga CD 10 1995, which I'd already downloaded it was just the problem burning it, which I eventually didn't need to do anyway as I just mounted the ISO with Daemon Tools LITE, and extracted the files I'd been after. |

I use VirtualCloneDrive as CD drive emulation. http://www.elby.ch/en/fun/software/index.html And 7zip to view ISOs without mounting them. http://www.7-zip.org/ 7zip can read almost everything which hosts other files. Even executable installer files, MSI files and such. |
