Hello all i am still new to the amiga

questions?

1) can i now play cd32 games if so how?
2) how do i uninstall a program on the amiga?
(i cannot access the pref for the cd drive)
3) is there a media player for the a1200 0S 3.1?
4) does 0S 3.5 support pictures format like jpg,bmp??

1. I don't think you can play CD32 games on an A1200 without a CD32 ROM image and EUAE (although the reverse is certainly possible).

2.  To uninstall a program just delete it.  There is no special uninstaller except a utility on the Aminet that deletes the files an installer script asks for.

3.  There are several on the Aminet but don't expect to be able to play PC animations on a stock A1200.  You'll need more memory and a faster processor than the A1200 comes with.  One of my favorites is HippoPlayer in the mus/play directory on the Aminet.  It plays lots of music file formats on non-PowerPC Amigas.

No need for all that. If you insert a CD32 CD in the CD drive, you can access it as any normal disk, so just open the disk icon and execute the game file and it plays just fine.

i don't have any cd32 game to try but until now i thought that it needs a cd32 emulator (includet in idefix package) to play these games.


-edit-
@2J4EZ: and os3.1 support these filetypes and much more. search on aminet for corresponding datatypes http://aminet.net/search.php?path=util/dtype
