Can't get WinUAE to register my ROMs
I hope there is a simple fix for this.
I have saved my ROMs into a folder within the WinUAE folder and then gone to PATHS >> ROMs and set the correct path to find them. However, WinUAE won't recognize them and lists all ROMs saying each one is unavailable. Can anyone help please? Thanks! |

Either your roms are broken/unsupported or your path isn't right (let's hope it's the second
 ) Make again sure that the path points to the location where your roms are stored and that they aren't in any subfolders.Btw : Which version of WinUAE do you use? |

If you are using the Amiga Forever ROMS, make sure that you have the rom.key file as well.

Ok, I'm using WinUAE v1.5.3
I do have the path pointing to the correct directory I do have the rom.key in there as well. I have the 1.3 and the 2.04 ROMs with the correct revision number that WinUAE asks for. Any ideas? |

I don't have Amiga Forever myself, but I think the kickroms and the rom.key must also be in the Amiga Forever paths. There is a thread about this here, but I couldn't find it now

Got it working now guys, thanks. I just changed the paths a few times and pressed ENTER to re-scan the paths and suddenly it recognized them.
