Troubleshooting:

Help! I am trying to copy the workbench 1.3 files to my wb1.3 hard disk directory, but after following this step: “Type in: COPY DF0: WB1.3: ALL and press Return/Enter.” during the coping process winuae crashes.

Ok then try this other tried and tested method. N.b. you will need a kickstart 2.x or 3.x rom file for this to work.

If you have quit WinUAE after the first chapter then re-launch the program, left click the config you made and click the Load button.

1. Go to the ROM Properties and click ‘...’ button and set the path to your kick-start 2.x or 3.x ROM File.

2. Select the Floppies Properties.

3. On the DF0: slot click the ‘...’ button on the right and select your Workbench v1.3.3 A.D.F (Amiga Disk File).

4. Then click OK/Start to start the emulation. When the Amiga has booted you should see Ram Disk, wb1.3 (this is your blank HD directory) and Workbench1.3

5. Double click on wb1.3 to open (Move the window up to the top of screen)

6. Double click on Workbench1.3 (Move the window down to the bottom of screen)

7. Now go to the top of the screen and hold your right mouse button down.

8. Hover your mouse over window > Show > All files then let go

9. Now go to the top of the screen again and hold your right mouse button down.

10. Hover your mouse over select contents then let go

11. Hold the shift key down.

12. Drag and drop by clicking and holding mouse on any icon (top left icon in workbench1.3 disk window is best)

13. Drag into wb1.3 (your open hd directory window) and let go of mouse.

14. Now press F12, go to floppies Properties and click Eject in DF0: slot.

15. Go to ROM Properties, swap back to 1.3 kickstart rom

16. Go to MISC Properties, click ‘Reset Amiga’ (In WinUAE 0.8.26, Hit reset on bottom left)

17. Click OK button, Workbench 1.3 should now boot from the hd directory.
