Getting downloaded games to work

[Boing-ball]

Your best bet is just replace the internal floppy drive with a Gotek drive and buy something like a 8GB USB pen drive formatted as FAT32. Copy over the .adf files to the OneDrive and off you go…

Thanks , Ive just had a look at the gotek drives on last post , not too expensive and can get it with the appropriate USB Flash Memory Stick . At the risk of sounding a bit dopey , does this mean i can download , unzip and drag the adf files onto the memory stick using my pc , then just stick it in the gotek drive and games will work (simples !)

Simple answer is yes. You just use the select buttons/dial. A lot of games rely on the drive being DF0: so why the replacing of the Floppy drive.

There are alternatives, but it's of course another thing that cost a bit, to make it possible to use the external port as DF0:

Personally I wouldn't want just a gotek because there are disks around and with only a gotek you can't do anything with them. If you never plan to ever use disks then just a gotek is fine of course.

That will not work on the OPs A1200 😉
