Can't add a harddrive

DyLucke · 15 January 2011, 11:13

Hi there guys, it's been a long time since i don't use WinUAE, specially since i just use it to prepare CF cards and such to use on real miggies.

However i've found i can't "add a hard drive" anymore on my system. The option always appears to be greyed out.

That didn't happen when i used XP.

Great! Thanks a lot. It seems i should get more used to the "admin" stuff on windoze 7.

I've just edited the winuae properties and give admin privileges to it.

It does perfectly work even using the -disableharddrivesafetycheck thru the console.

Thanks again.

This no longer works for me, using the latest version.

I'm not using the latest version since it seems it doesn't recognize any of my roms.

I also find with latest version, when you minimize WinUAE, the keyboard is still active in UAE, and it messes up stuff on workbench, when your in windows.
