Shadow of the Beast on A2000

[irishmike]

Greetings:

I booted my A2000 for the first time and verified that the hard drive and workbench come up just fine.

So I decided to finally try the copy of Shadow of The Beast I bought from eBay last month and it boots up, but it seems to stop at the screen where the two creatures are still and the floppy light is on solidly,but it has been on that screen for 3 minutes at the time of this writing.

This A2000 does have the GVP 030 accelerator in it.

Any ideas on why it is hanging up?

Thanks,

Mike

WHDLoad sounds like a great idea.  I am having trouble getting it over to the Miggie from my Mac.  I put it on a 880K minus the DOCs folder and I admit it has been so long since I did anything with Amiga -- so how do I install it?  Install script is present but it is on a DOS formatted floppy right now so I went to PC0: and nothing shows up even though I copied all the files (except the DOCS directory) to that floppy.  I went into Directory Opus and selected the INSTALL file and run and nothing.  Does it need to be done from a Shell?

Thanks -- it has just been so long :-)

@zebeedee:  Yep, that is what I did except for the copy from the PC0 to hard drive part.

Looks like I do need to run the install script on the hdd after looking at the documentation :-)
