Title: IDE FIX '97 CD32 Emulator problem
Post by: bx19rd on May 02, 2008, 04:17:42 PM
 A bit of a strange one here, I hope someone has the answer, as I searched about the forum and Google and did not find anything. Here goes :

 I have IDE FIX '97 installed and working on my A1200 and I have a CD32 collection of games, when I run the emulator the Amiga starts to run the CD and all is fine I get the menu, music etc but when I select a game it begins to load and then says "please insert volume cd32 in any drive" now its obvisouly in the drive since it got so far. I can't for the life of me figure out whats happening.

 Its as though its being ejected?

It is being powered off the floppy drive power connector.

My setup is :

A1200, Viper 1230,8Mb fast, IDE FIX adaptor (1 x CDROM + 1 x CF card with WB3.0 on it) 60W A500 PSU

IDE FIX is not in my startup sequance as when I selected that in the setup my A1200 would lock up and no longer boot. It mounts and reads CDs fine in WorkBench though.

Any help or advice is appriciated :)

I haven't use this IDEFIX CD32 enulator, but I use the Squirrel SCSI CD32 version. This one works fine with most CD32 games.
When it ask your device choose your IDEFIX.

assign cd32: cd0:

Tried that and it said "Can't find cd0:"

Then I remembed the DOS name for the drive when I set it up was CD2. So I tried :

assign cd32: cd2:

and the shell says "Can't cancel cd32"

The Squirrel disc has a setup program, I thought the emulator on that disc was seperate or does it install, its just I don't really want to install something I will probley break :lol:

Any other ideas?
Have I set IDE Fix wrong?

vThanks for the help :D
