Hi Walter,

Here are a couple of items that may help you.

BMD PAL BOOT Disk - for booting your Amiga into PAL mode for the European Games 
and Demos - Thanks again Ernie! :)

ADF2DISK util - allows you to convert ADF files into 880K Amiga Floppies - only 
thing you need to do is get it onto your Amiga HD first.  If you have a 3.5" 
DSDD floppy disk that is formatted with MSDOS and have access to CROSSDOS on 
your Amiga then you could just copy the file over that way.

Just a couple of suggestions.  :)

  Thanks to Joe P I got a new Amiga Power Supply,
  A couple of games, a joystick and some Amiga Manuals.

  I managed to fix my Power Light,  A broken track on the Mother board,
  Perhaps when I took the cover off the first time and the power light did not
  Go through the case. but I soldered it across the break and it works now.

  J very happy with it. only now, I need to mess around.

  So I guess I am wondering, are there any utilities that allow
  One to create Amiga Disk images?  My Workbench disk works,
  But my Amiga Basic and Extra's disk has errors on it. so I cannot
  Run basic or some of the stuff on that disk.

  Do we have any Amiga Basic Disks I could grab next Thursday
  At the meeting?  Are the Amiga folks meeting up then, I would
  Love to pic a few brains. J

  I was wondering if there are any programs I can run on my pc that
  Emulates a drive on the amiga, like the C64 has?

  Cheers.

  J
