Writing an Amiga partition table to a HD does not necessaryly delete the PC partition table.

WinUAE has a safety restriction that it does not show drives with PC partition tables on it.

These are your options:

- somehow delete the PC partition table so WinUAE shows the drive (warning: this might as well destroy the Amiga partition table. You should know what you do)

- put the Amiga drive and the PC drive into your Amiga and use the Amiga and the FAT95 software to copy the files to your PC HD.

- wait for the next WinUAE version. It will allow you to override the safety protection.

- there are a few more options like a nullmodem cable, an ethernet connection, floppy disks etc.

Bye,
