Hi all,
I hope you can help me. I have successfully installed and configured WINUAE on my pc, setup hard drives, installed os 3.1 then upgraded to os 3.5 using my origional CD i purchased. The system runs perfect, my question is howver. I have a few origional gamnes on cd. Along with a number of origional coverdisks etc. I am trying ot run for example a game called foundation from the cd. I double click on teh icon and nothing happens. The same with cover disks if i try and actually run a program off them they seem to fail to see the cd for some reason and ask for the cd volume name to be inserted. It is already there. I am emulating teh cd drive as it all shows up. Has anyone else sucessfully managed to get things to work of origional cd;s propperly. Anyhelp would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

If you can, set up Amikit, which has all the hard drive space
configured for you--and if you 'F12' and go to the underlying WinUAE
config, you can as well recognize and use whatever extra drives
you have on your computer (Amikit recognizes a lot of text files,
and .adf's of course). The color scheme is pretty decent, but I
think you'll need os3.9-4.- or something if you want more colors
/web/flash interactivity, but I'm not sure about that, as I don't
have a powerpc.

Install RTG or some other graphics card bases system. Im unsure which ones WinAUE supports but im sure RTG is.
