You could always ask them, but most likely the answer is "No".

Cool!  :-)

The first big update of 2006!

But a shame there's no mention of improved PCI Catweasel support...

>i only download the zip file and replace newer files on my installation, so where are these "PNG screenshots." are they only in the exe file??

When press end print Key on windows Keyboard the screenshots go in the winuae dir\screenshots.

But they begin count from 0 000.png.

png save space on harddrive compared to the BMP

1 Note:
when use winuaeenforcer with 1.2.0 you must use the winuaenforcer program attached with this install.
older version have wrong default setting.

the new winuaeenforcer work too on older versions but with 1.2.0 you can do winuaeenforcer 2.this
print krpintf debugmessages in the logfile or when start winuae -log in the shell window

The latest Winuae.chm help file is available from:
http://www.pcguru.plus.com/news.html


BTW, why is it Winuae does not recognise the chm file and the Help button is greyed out?
Sometimes renaming the file to lower case helps but not always...

Hmmm about how to create HDF from Amiga formatted harddisk ...

I went to Hard drives section and i'm not seeing how to do it ... At the moment, I don't have a Amiga HD attached to the PC IDE. Yes, i'm running Winblows XP.

How can I an image from Amiga formatted harddisk ?

Are you sure WinUAE.chm is on the same path as winuae.exe ?

Well, I can for sure say that you need to have the Amiga HDD connected, at least.

Hum,
Yeah, it always looks good!

Except i`m having Ibrowse problems with this version...
(Though it could have just been the websites fault...)

Anyone else notice any weirdness?
