A600
« on: February 22, 2007, 12:28:08 AM »
Hi all. I've just unearthed an old a600 from my childhood and have been playing all my old games. Having searched the web and these forums i'm not sure it's possible but does anyone know if I can download roms on my PC and get them working on my actual a600. cheers for your help.

Thanks for your replies guys. You're right, I meant games. Sorry about the confusion. I've got workbench 2.1. So how do I go about getting an .adf file to run on my amiga? Are all amiga disks 720k? I can't tell the difference between these and my 1.44Mb floppies for my PC. And how do I format the disks? Thanks again for all this help guys.

Thanks Countzero this seems like what I'm after. I've formatted my floppy disk and i've downloaded adf2disk.lha from aminet. What do you mean when you say 'get lha'? Is this a windows program for compressing? If I search aminet for lha i just get lots of files with extension .lha. Or do I need a .lha file for each .adf file? Sorry about this but I really don't know what i'm talking about! Thanks again for all your help guys.

Right I think I'm getting there. I have one .lha file containing adf2disk and a an .adf file of my game. Do I need to archive lha.lha into this file as well? You're also going to have to explain to me what to do with all of these files on my amiga in simpler terms than before. Really sorry but I'm a bit thick as you may have already worked out. Lol! Thanks so much for all your help. I'm really excited about playing some of the old games I've lost the disks for. Cheers.
