Thanks Speelgoedmannetje,
Would it be possible to list everything I will need to transfer a ADF "image" of a game, from a PC, then onto the Amiga, then onto a Disk? BTW I will be getting Workbench 2.1 with the Amiga.

Many, Many Thanks
Specs  :-D

@Specs78
you're welcome!
For getting an ADF image on flop (considering you already got the image in the memory of the Amiga, you'll need only the program adf2disk.
To be able to fit the image on a dos flop, you'll need to compress it to an ADZ file (zipped, I think).
As far as I know, adf2disk supports ADZ files.

Thanks again mate. the only problem with the games I have found in ADF format, is that they are stored on my PC! How can I get all of this software over to my Amiga with the least amount of fuss? (in idiot's terms as I'm stupid)Will I have to use 720kb disks to store the programs on?
