Help Please - WinUAE Configuration

[ckillerh3]

Hi -

I am a Newbie to WinUAE and need some help
configuring my new system.  I've got the following
components:

Clean PC Pentium 3 (Athalon processor)
384 Meg RAM
Catweasel IV
Amiga Forever CD
Windows XP operating system (just installed)
Dual Floppy Drives
100 gig drive master
2 gig drive (duplicate) from my A4000 system
USB Zip disk (drive F) with both PC and Amiga format ZIP disks

I've got the floppy drives installed and working
at least to read PC disks. It will not read any
Amiga floppys yet.  When initially installing
Amiga Forever it asked if I wanted to mount the
floppy disks as amiga disks and I checked them off.
No luck here, though.

* PS the floppy drive cable was a bit short so after installing the board I moved its slot position switching it with my ethernet card.  After moving it it would not be recognized anymore.  Moving it back made it work again.  I've never heard of a position sensitive card before !

The same for my Zip disk (logical drive F).  When installing the software it asked me if I wanted it
mounted as an Amiga drive but won't see it.

Any help or suggestions appreciated.  Thank you !

Hi -

Right now I have the floppy cable on the PC Motherboard
connected to the Catweasel IV, then that cable daisy chained to drive A and drive B.  Both access the PC disk just fine.  I've loaded all the different drivers tha show up under "Other Floppy Controller" Windows / System Config / Hardware Manager.

When I start WinUAE they still read PC disks just fine but do not seem to read Amiga disks.  Perhaps I have the software set wrong?

I've got more work to do here to figure this out !

Crow -

I connected one FD to the PC mother board and the other directly to the Catweasl IV.
Now it works great.  I didn not know that I had to use the CW softawre
utility to read Amiga disks, though, then make an image.  I think that the new
version of WinUAE reads Catweasl Amiga disks directly.  Will see soon !

Thanks a million
