How can I load .mods into OctaMED Pro on my Workbench 1.3 emulation on Windows XP

[gavinb]

Nicebutdim here,

I am using the Amiga Online 2006 Edition.
I have downloaded two things:
    1. cu_1992_07_d036.adf a demo disk which has OctaMED
       Pro
    2. some .mods

I click on my launcher in Windows XP and get my little menu. I open Workbench 3.X. F12 it and select the .adf disk image to boot using quickstart and restart to open the demo disk.

When that's up and running and I open OctaMED, when I want to load .mods, I can't find them on my file menu. How can I open my .mods in OctaMED.

Do I need to transfer them from my Windows XP folder to somewhere the emulated OctaMED can get at them?

Please help.

rkauer,

thankyou very much for your response.

I've opened up the WinUAE properties to change the configuration. I'm sorry dude, I don't see where I can select to show windows drivers. Please help.

Thankyou Thomas,

I took your advice, but when I came to the desktop that I see after the disk loads there is no icon.

Usually I bring the F12 menu up in Workbench 3.X and go to Quickstart. In 'Emulated Floppy Drives' I load the disk into DF0:

When I restart and the system behaves as if it has booted from a disk, I get the 'Workbench Screen' with "Amiganuts Copywrite" on the desktop and an icon "CU36". When I double click the icon the OctaMED package starts up.

I can get all this up and running but when I want to open a file, I get a lot of directories but I don't know how to get my .mods (in Windows XP file) into one of these Amiga directories.

Help please.

That's absolutely fantastic _yak_, thankyou very much. Now I can see all the drives on my laptop from within the OctaMED files.

When I start the disk up I get a few new icons on the top right hand of the desktop. These are the drives I wanted to access.



When I am in OctaMED, in the files section I can easily get access to the drives where I keep .mods



Thankyou very much ^^,
