0 bytes ADF Files

Hi

I have been using WinUAE for a while now and have never had any problems until now....

Recently I went to 'Select Disk Image' to put an adf file in the drive and was told that the "selected disk image is damaged or unformatted".

I went to the folder on my computer where I store the adf files and found that almost all of them (mainly games and coverdisks) were reading as 0 bytes, although all the files are still visible. This might be a problem with my computer rather than WinUAE, but any suggestions would be appreciated.

I'm running WinUAE 1.0.0 on Win XP

Thanks

Try running Chkdsk or use a more advanced program such as Norton Diskdoctor.

Hi Peter

Thanks for the suggestions. I've tried doing what you suggested and various other virus/spyware/housekeeping tools and none seem to make a difference.

But I shall rise from the ashes again! <sound of hysterical and confused laughter>.
