Which WinUAE version for installing a HD?

Kodoichi · 31 January 2002, 22:30

I had AIAB installed with WinUAE 0.8.17 for a while now, but it keeps crashing back to windows all the time on certain programs... I can't even play the HD-versions of Flood and Unreal offered at the AIAB-site. Also, 'add PC drives' makes it crash too. Now:

Which version of WinUAE should I use if I want to install a stable AIAB?

Which version of WinUAE should I use if I try to make a custom HD-installation myself?

Strange, 0.8.17 runs workbench perfectly for me. 0.8.16 used to fail loading the workbench background image sometimes and it used to crash while I attempted to delete directories. I set up my HD with 0.8.16 and it's working better with the latest release. I don't use AIAB though.

Well, I got that crashing issue with WinUAE 0.8.17R3 but not with 0.8.17R1 (AIAB), most stable version with AIAB (for me personally) is 0.8.14 (all) ..... if you don´t need JIT and need a good platform for games, use 0.8.14 and AIAB

Bleh, now I already deinstalled AIAB and WinUAE and will try to set up a HD myself using 0.8.17R3...

Before I install Workbench on my Windows-HD (not a hardfile), do I need to 'add directory' or just tick 'add PC drives at startup'?

You just need to 'add directory'

I also had this problem when running AIAB on some the latest versions of WinUae, I contacted Jaybee about this problem and he said that it keeps cropping up but as yet has no idea of what is causing it

I could however get it working on WinUae 8.8 R8

If I hear anything back again from jaybee I will let you all know
