About 2 years ago I bought a CD from HMV called Amiga Emulator. On the back cover in really small writing it says Workbench 1.3 and Roms included under license. I can rind the Rom file but I can't find this WB3.1.adf. I thought I was paying for both of them, I can get the games to work but no workbench screen. I do own the original disks but I've only just started to get my Amiga 1200 out after years and years and I don't want the hassle of making an adf of Workbench. Does anyone know if the file is on the Cd under another name or something or if I can download WB3.1 from somewhere? :boohoo:

I've just read somewhere that I shouldn't be asking for this file, is that right?

Hello,
I'm afraid Kickstart and Workbench v1.3 are considerably less useful than the more recent v3.1 release.
I would recommend purchasing Amiga Forever in order to gain access to a fantastic Amiga resource, which will also allow you to use other Workbench distributions, including AIAB and AmiKit.
However, if you truly do already own a Kickstart v3.1 A1200, spend a few searching and you will quickly find the necessary files online.
Take care,
James

You could use EasyADF PCMCIA Transfer Kit (http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=440) to convert your Workbench 3.1 disk and other disks to an ADF and transport it over to the PC. EasyADF (http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=440) will also convert back to the Amiga 1200's floppy disks as well.
It is very quick, easy to use and does not require a hard disk on your A1200.
If you need Amiga Forever 2006 (http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=526) we also stock that and the original AmigaOS 3.1 disks (http://amigakit.leamancomputing.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=177)
Hope this helps!

Problem sorted for now :-)

Problem. I had AIAB working fine, then it wouldn't load up. I don't know why. So I've tried reinstalling winUAE and AIAB the latest versions but for some reason the welcome to AIAB! wouln't show up. I just get normal WB3.1 load instead. Can anyone tell me how to get AIAB to install properly again? :-o

Remove the WB3.1 floppy from the disk drive :-)
(Press F12, go to the floppies page and click on eject next to DF0)
