Title: *Wanted* Copy of WB 3.1 (Fonts Disk).
Post by: tokyoracer on April 19, 2007, 09:47:35 AM
Hi,

I made the really stupid mistake buy putting some disks beside a heat source and just so happend there was a 3.1 floppy called "Fonts" in that lot. If anyone could give me a spare copy and I will be happy paying up for the disk and postage (to the UK).

Thanks for looking!

P.s. Am also after OS 3.5 or 3.9 CD although i'm not totally sure if I would be able to afford them right now but would like to hear from anyone who has one of these lying arround. :-)

Technically the answer to that is ... Software hut has them for a reasonable price.

Never done Windows -> Amiga transsfers and have no idea how it could be done as you would need to format the floppy on Windows just to put the data on. How can my Miggie be able to get that data if it doesn't have the correct OS format?

In windows: execute command "format a: /n:9 /t:80"
then copy the files to a:

On Amiga: type in cli: "mount PC0:"
Insert the disk and off you go....
