Hi!
I have been able to transfer a few games, but suddenly I cannot seem to do it anymore. Some looks okei, but then it all stops, or the game doesnt work.

Is there differences in adf files? should every adf file work? am i doing something wrong?

thanks

If you followed the instructions as you said, then the error messages you get, 99.9% are caused by bad floppy disks!
Anyway, floppy disks as we all now are not a very reliable mean of storage.
Try to amiga format (with verify) a disk (so to be 100% sure that disk is ok) and use it to transfer an image.
In order to make a transfer the disk must be unformatted, amiga formatted, or an amiga disk that already have data on it and you wish to overwrite it.

Btw, if you, or anyone have any problems ,it's better to contact through ebay messages or email me directly(ikonsgr@hotmail.com) to get a much more fast reply, as
i don't get to forums too often.

... and what could cause this error message in the last 00.1 % ? :mickeymouse:

Bad floppy disks!

I have formatted and then checked each disk for error. Losts of them was bad and have been thrown out. But the remaining few comes out clean without errors. Still I get the error message as mentioned... Its never the ADF-files? Is there a way I can test something to find out whats up?

As mentioned before, I managed to transfer a few adf images. Suddenly mu luck ran out, and i didnt manage to transfer sucsessfully. but i managed to transfer something. But then the adf transfer program on my pc wouldnt automatically detect the parallel port adress anymore. after counltess restarts etc, it wount connect anymore.

any thoughts?
