Getting games onto HDD

[amigagr]

welcome aboard RAFJamie :-)
most of floppy games in amiga are made in a way to boot with the floppy and play the game. mostly for copyright reasons the companies made them not to been installable in a hdd. there is a trick in the later years for this and it's name is WHDLoad but more tips for this from other users as personaly i'm not  using it.

in general aminet will help you to find a lot of usefull amiga stuff and use. to be able to use the cd you must install a CD DosDrive in directory Devs/DosDrivers. download amicdfs read the docs carefully and try an installation. for any problem if something goes wrong, please call :-)

-edit-
in a normal situation the pcmcia cd you get must have a floppy with a specific pcmcia driver called xxxx.device. do you have the floppy?

the floppy is not formated or it is an amiga bootable game :-)
