Amiga Developer CD and Windows

[Principher]

I have recently got my hands on Amiga Developer CD 1.2 but I have a problem reading the documentation.

I would like to read the docs in Windows, but have not been able of finding a proper reader (or converter) for the format. A solution would be to run Amiga Forever on my computer, but the system dies with a blue screen whenever I try that.

So any ideas what to do?

What system/version of windows are you using?.
Also system specs.

This may be a more simple solution, if the documentation is in AmigaGuide format.

OS: Windows ME (came with the computer back in the old days )

Laptop
Celeron 1GHz
256MB ram
Trident graphics card with 8 MB shared RAM

Amiga Forever used to run on the computer. Probably time for a re-install, but I don´t feel like it right now (have no options for backing up my data).

Thanks motorollin. Though the files do not have the right file ending they seem to be in Amiga Guide format. So now I can read the docs. Now I just have to get ready for some coding before I come back near my Amiga

And thanks to _ThEcRoW for interest in getting my Amiga Forever running. Guess it should work when I have the computer reinstalled.

In the RKM drawer there should also be a HTML directory that will let you view the documentation with a web browser.

If Principher has the old version he claims he has then it probably only has the AmigaGuide files and no HTML version.

I indeed have the old version, since I could get it _very_ cheap and I only have KS3.0 in my real Amiga. So that is the platform I have for testing apart from Amiga Forever. If I had known about the HTML documentation I probably would have spend the extra cash on the updated version.

Bummer.

The new version is worth it, IMHO. Otherwise, as mentioned above you can get a basic AmigaGuide viewer in Windows, so all is not lost.

The files can be read on every windows pc with the amiga guide reader for windows.

by the way, the 2.1 cd isnt that expensive and contains a copy of storm c++ 3 too, no the newest one but easy to install, and works with ks 3.0
