fresh reinstall winuae bringing up old cwb?

hi guys,

i ran through the winuae emulation as a test and aborted the workbench disk image install after disk 1 as i was just messing about.

classic wb boots in winuae but i want to completely start again as i now have bought a CF card so will be setting up CWB for real - problem is i cant start from scratch - everytime i start emulation it keeps going back to the old wb screen when i only partially installed it - i now want to start again and i have all the workbench 3.1 image disks so want to install fonts, locale etc.

i've tried uninstalling winuae in full and maunally deleted all winuae files/folders i can think of but when i do a reinstall of winuae and try to start the install process again when i click start it keeps remembering my first 'test' install somehow and goes straight to cwm screen??

any ideas - there must be a way to completely deleted everything and start all over again!?

Try diskparting the Card / HDD, so there is nothing on it, including no RDB.
Or alter the partition size slightly.

I think what you're seeing is Classic WB installing onto its own .HDF. Not very user friendly, but you just make a copy of the original and install onto that, and then copy the whole install to the drive and partition you intend to use.

just thought i'd mention that the cf card isnt attached yet, i'm only talking about this happening on windows 7

i'll try using a fresh system.hdf....

thanks - it was exactly that - i used a new system.hdf file and all fine now!
