I'm in the process of coverting ADFs of games onto disk. I have mangaged to find ADFs of the games I want to restore to disk, the only problem is that some of the games are quite large, and need to be spanned over 2 or more disks.
An ADF is a disk image of
one disk and always is about 900 KB big (forgot the exact number, but they're all the same size).
If your file is bigger than that, it is either a
HDF ("hard disk file") which can not be restored to a floppy disk (because it's not a floppy disk image) or a ZIP archive containing several ADFs.
In the latter case, extract the archive and you'll end up with several ADFs which can be written back to floppy disks seperately.
Also I don't know if I've got the right Null Modem Cable. What type do I would I need to buy if I've got the wrong one?
Any null modem cable should be fine. To test if your cable works, simply use LhA or ZIP to pack a single text document and transfer that to the other computer. If the target computer is able to extract (and display) the text file, your connection is fine.
