I hope to fit a hard drive at some point however reading the docs for WHDload has left me a little confused. I presume this is a program for the amiga however how do I get that program onto the amiga? I thought that pc formatted discs were incompatible to amiga floppies due to size.
An Amiga with WB 2.1 or higher can read 720k dos formatted floppies. It just does not work the other way around. Do you have the WB set?
I also wonder if all these amiga games is infact designed to run on an a1200? Some early games from the a500 era does not run on a a1200 without some tweaks. Some games will run if you go into early boot menu and selecting the emulate OCS option from the menu. Most a500 games do however work just fine with whdload though. I personally use whdload for nearly all games, as not only does more games work, but you never need to swap a disk again and the games load in just seconds. And i dont think you need an accelrator for anything but newer games. You might have some use for a tad more memory, but i believe most a500 games work just fine.
