As Mickey said no point discussing Wins.
I managed to setup winUAE so I can see the "hand"
/w floppy disk showing the Workbench 1.3, afterwards instead of kick 1.3 I put in 3.1 and it showed me disk goin' into DF0 or smtng like that and said 3.1 ROM 40.063. So what do i do now ?
Guys honestly, can someone tell me each step how to install damn game? Then I will be able to make other HD games work on my XP. Tnx ;-)

U might use this info whilst helpin' me. I got new R9 version of WinUAE.
I set RAM (chp:2, fast:2, slow:1), CHIPSET (full ECS, fast copper, sprites & sprites vs. Playfield), HD properites (D:\Amiga\DH0.hdf, device: HD0, surfaces:1, reserved:2, sectors:32, boot pri.:0, block size 512, R/W,100 mb), DF0: kick31.zip ! The other things are set to default.  :-)

Thanx Punk, I did everything you said when i resetted "amiga" the screen turned black, and finally the window opened it said:

Amiga DOS
AMIGA ROM Operating System and Libraries
Copyright @ 1985-1993 Commodore-Amiga Inc.

So, how to start Genesia now, it's in d:\amiga\HDGenesia dir.

GenesiaHD [DIR]:
Gsave [DIR]: 0.A0, 0.dat, 0.nam
Source[DIR]: genesia.asm
Root of directory Genesia HD: Genesia.exoticon, Genesia.glowicon, Genesia.newexot, Genesia.newicon, Genesia.slave, HDpath.inf, install(no extension), install.info, manual(no ext.), manual.info, readme(no ext.), readme.info ;

That's all what dir has.

Maybe i made mistake whilst making HD file in winUAE.
 I chose Hard Dirves tab, Add Hardfile button, Create Hadrfile size 10mb, Create. And that's all, correct me please if I made a mistake.

When I start Workbench 1.3, under the DH0 icon it says: DH0:COPY, so I "made" another HDD, named it DH1, when I started Wb 1.3 it said: empty

Oh, I allmost forgot when it starts copying files he copies 11 of them and then it stops, active (copying) window remains w/o any action, is that normal ?
