The floppy drive controller in the pc is basically crap and has difficulty reading anything other than pc formatted disks. Where as the Amiga`s floppy drive controller is much more flexable and only needs a dos driver to be written to support a certain file system/Disk type.GP40 posted on May 5 2005 at 03:26 PM said:Blimmy, the collection titles are a bit rare and pricey aren't they :blink:
Thanks for the tips though, I now know what I'm looking for. In the mean time, I think I'll get day of the tenticle B)
Just a side question: I have the Amiga version of monkey island 1. Why can't pcs' read Amiga disks? Are they physically different to pc ones? (I remember something about the disk density).
I think you need cross dos on your amiga to do that.Funkmeister_Smith posted on May 5 2005 at 05:15 PM said:I found with my old Atari ST (the Amiga 'rival' in its day) that it could read PC formatted disks, but the PC could not read a disk formatted by the ST. If you still have your Amiga you could try copying the original Monkey Island disk (with your Amiga) onto a blank PC formatted disk. Maybe that would work?
Comes built-in with workbench 2.1 and upwards, Or you could use messydos available on AminetDanGP posted on May 5 2005 at 06:14 PM said:I think you need cross dos on your amiga to do that.Funkmeister_Smith posted on May 5 2005 at 05:15 PM said:I found with my old Atari ST (the Amiga 'rival' in its day) that it could read PC formatted disks, but the PC could not read a disk formatted by the ST.
