Need help please.

Hi all,
I used to run Amikit 1.4.0 on Win2000 with no provbems.
But I was forced to re-format my HD.
Installed WinUAE (latest version) got the ROM 3.1 in a folder, then Installed Amikit 1.4.0.
But as in an earlier thread I have got tihs problem.

When I try to run Amikit, after setting the prefs that is I get this error.

C/FastAssign: unkown command
C/FastAssign failed return code 10
C/

Ok I cant get any further, so it looks like I will have to forget Amikit.
So I shall attempt tp use WinUAE.
Right now I am proper tired fedup, proper fed up been up most of the night trying to put this right, but I simple cant. and need some one with a config file so I can set up WinUAE please.

I have got the Workbench Discs 3.1 and a ROM 3.1

I dont really want to completely give up on this,

I have been to the Amikit help forums but I have been told they dont know what is wrong, maybe its Win2000 that is incompatible? Because Amikit is more for XP and Vista, I dont want to use XP as the copy I have is not legal but my Win2000 is, its my genuine disc.

Any help please will be greatly appreciated.

TIA,

Mike.

I just took off WinUAE and just ran Amikit 1.4.0 and I got an empty shell command.

SO I put back on WinUAE 1.4.4 and same empty shell.

This is most odd.

I changed the C/FastAssint to C:FastAssign.
Then I see the repfs line of text and it stop there.

I can see I shall have to leave this.

Thanks any way guys.

Ok, I got it working.
Off all the things......
I have 3 partitions on my HD amognts others that is.
AmiKit, Ami-Work, and Ami-Grafix
As you know I could not get AmiKit to run, I simply renamed the partition from AmiKit to Amiga and then AmiKit ran perfectly.

Inside the AMiKit startup sequence is a command CD AmiKit:
It could not see AmiKit, because AmiKit was inside the partition called AmiKit, this got a lot of confusion for the program.
All sorted now.

Yippeeeeeeeeeee..

Well I lay in bed all last night thinking of some thing complex.
I thought to myself it could not be the partition could it?

Yes it could, why on earth I did not think of that in the first place.
I even changed parts of the startup-sequence of Amikit but to no avail.

Like CD AmiKit/AmiKit:

Its usually the way isnt it.
