Problem with WinUAE

[cwright]

Hello all,
Apologies for asking such a basic question....

  Some time ago I bought an Amiga emulator CD ROM that claimed it contained everything needed to get it going. When running WinUAE, and after selecting the preferences, it shows a hand holding a Workbench disk. Clearly it expects the equivalent of a Workbench disc to boot the emulation. I have some Workbench disks - but there's no way they'll work on a PC!

  None of the doc files gave a hint of what you're supposed to do at this point. If someone could give me a clue I'd be most grateful!

  Many thanks.

  Best regards,
    Chris

Thomas,
  I understand now. The problem is how to get a Workbench ADF file. I did a search and several sources said they were available for download on the Net, but I didn't find any. Do you or anyone know where these can be downloaded? Over the years I bought three Amigas (an original NTSC development A1000 before they were in the shops, an A1200 and an A3000) so my conscience is (reasonably!) clear.

  Best regards and many thanks,
   Chris

Thomas,
  I got the ADF file and now WinUAE is working. Many thanks.

  I'm just a bit annoyed that I actually bought the emulator CD and it said it contained everything you needed to get going, which simply wasn't the case. Oh, well....you pays your money....

  Best regards,
    Chris
