Hi there,

Does anyone run AmigaSys 3 Plus under WinUAE 1.4.4? It seems to work very well in the OS 3.1 install, but when I upgrade it to 3.9 using the AmigaForever CD Premium Edition, it doesn't seem to complete its upgrade properly.

Installation:

- Windows XP Pro
- WinUAE 1.4.4
- AmigaForever 6.0 CD Premium Edition

Problem: When I try to upgrade to OS 3.9, I get an error during the installation. "Can't open System:Prefs/Env-Archive/ for output - file is write-protected"

I get a Toolmanager dialog box that asks: "Quit ToolManager?"

I select NO and the installation finishes.

I reboot and instead of getting the nice theme I selected during the installation, I get the AmigaForever theme and the clock and calendar are twice their original size. The menu dock doesn't load. iBrowse doesn't work either because MUI insn't installed/upgraded properly. (I forget the error message)

I tried to load a new theme from Workbench tools, but that did not work either. It says it installed, but after reboot, I always get the old AF theme.

All this works great under the OS 3.1 AmigaSys 3 Plus installation. It seems that the OS 3.9 upgrade is failing at some point.

Any suggestions?
