Can't "Add Harddrive"

mr.niceguy · 27 January 2010, 18:53

I'm getting crazy here.

I never had problems in using WinUAE. After I was ripped off by a fat virus I had to format C

Now I have the problem that I can't add a harddrive (button is shadowed): i tried it with the new version, and now I tried it with the last version I used (1.6.0).

Anyone got a clue? Thanks for your help...

Perhaps "Add Harddrive" button should say something about admin privilege requirement when it is not available..

maybe, it took some searching on various forums before i found that out, you usually dont think twice about starting up a program by clicking on it.
