firstly I am new here so please be gentle....  Having sold my amiga 1200 some 13 years ago and moved onto the PC, I eventually found WinUAE, and got right back into playing good old miggy games.   A month ago I decided I would have to have a real amiga again so bought one off E Bay for a princely sum.  I also bought a PCMCIA adf to disk transfer kit from Amiga Vintage in Germany.  The hardware and software arrived and I eagerly read the limited instructions which were fairly straight forward. having set everything up I transferred some files from my PC onto the CF disk and inserted into the PCMCIA adapter and into the amiga. I started up the conversion software which is Tracksaver, ADFBlitzer is also supplied.

I have tried more than a few times to transfer the ADFs back onto an amiga disk without success.... very frustrating.

When the software has done its work, and the amiga restarted, the disk shows up as Df0:???? and obviously won't run.

Not being technically minded I don't know what is going wrong.

Does anyone know any possible reason this may occur and how I might be able to fix it... awaiting your replies and thanks in advance....

Regards Retrogamer


Usually when the disk shows up as DF0:??? it means that it is a Trackloader games which is cannot be run from Workbench ... Try restarting the Amiga with the disk in the drive .
