Title: Question about winuae and hard files
Post by: mrbill317 on June 30, 2006, 08:39:54 PM

I am trying to add a hardfile , I put in an amt of 600 meg and hit create and give it a name.

It goes into the list but I never see it show up on the desktop.

Reason I wanted to use a hardfile was to separate my game installs and eventually bring that hardfile over to my real Amiga 3000.
If thats possible heh.

thx

did you gave it a device name? something like : DH0 or DH1 or DH2. usualy DH0 used as the boot partition.

Hum,
So you cant see it to format it?

Press F12, while running Winuae, and make sure the path and name in the options is correct.
Try switching on show  PC HDs as well etc...

Or just forget about the Hard file, and just dump your files into a PC folder. Burn onto a CDrom afterwards to transfer them. Winuae has no problem with that (i assume your using XP).
