Picking up the PCMCIA compact flash adapter in WB3.1
Hi all,
I have just set up both my 1200s with HDDs and WHDload etc. However, I cant get either machine to detect the PCMCIA compact flash adapter and its flash card when I insert it - is there any settings I have to change? thanks for your help in advance PZ

I am not sure how you are gonna get the files to your amiga or indeed written to a floppy!
If you get stuck with this let me know I could put the drivers on a floppy for you! |

HI guys,
thanx for the responses - I wondered what was going on - no, I am not using classic WB, I have WB3.1 from my origional disks installed on both hdds. One is a amigakit flashcard that was part preconfigured with whdload on it and required the floppies to instal. The other is a HDD i configured with your help  .The miggy with the flashcard is an Amiga technologies 1200, 3.1rom with blizzard 030 and fpu expansion card. the other miggy is currently 3.0rom and currently unexpanded - i am going to use this machine as one I can move around and take to work etc etc I do have several other verions of workbench but all are either the 20+  year old floppies or cd 3.9.. Thought it would be easier to just use WB3.1 because for games at least, it would be easy to swap drives between machines if needed?I have easy adf transfer kit and I have a install of workbench lite on the flascard that I use with a boot flopy as a temporary pcmcia hdd. I was picking up the flashcard using wblite but it would be much easier just to be able to have the 3.1 installs pick the pcmcia drive up to transfer files  cheers pz |

Ahh, I was going to say CWB already had the drivers for PCMCIA Compact Flash adapters but if you have EasyADF just install the driver from your EasyADF flloppy
 You just need to run the installer script on the Floppy for ADAPCMCFL  All the best, Steve. |
