As Matt suggested, a Catweasel will help in dumping your Amiga diskettes to ADF images on your pc.

Additionally, you can try a tool called ADF Opus (adfopus.sourceforge.net) to extract the Amiga files from your ADF images into Windows folders.

"I sold my A1200 several years ago" seems to be a vital clue in this, people..and getting a CatWeasel just to convert 10 floppies seems excessive =).

The only feasable solution is finding somebody local with an Amiga or sending the disks to someone.


I have a cat installed. I could try if you're willing to ship your disks to Wisconsin.

AND if you don't mind that I sit on them, roll my office chair on top of them and let my dogs use them as chew toys.

No seriously, I am nervous about taking the risk of damaging 20 year old diskettes or being accused of doing so.

If you understand that I take no responsibility whatsoever for your disks then I am willing to help you if you need.
