First, TURN OFF THE CAPS LOCK, please. It makes you look like your shouting.
And we're all so nice around here. 🙂
Second, do you have CrossDos on your Amiga. Or better yet what model Amiga/ OS
version do you have.
If you have Amiga4000 with OS3.0+ then in your Storage/DosDrivers drawer you'll
find a PC0: icon. DoubleClick on that and your Amiga will recognize 720k
PC-formatted disks (1.44 if you have a high density drive). You'll have to
format them on your PC.
For those without immediate access to CrossDos, hooking up a serial cable and
running a Comm program on both machines can turn the trick.
Or upload to a local BBS then download to your PC.
Or e-mail them to yourself. AutoPilot is a great CIS navigator for Amiga Users.
You'll find it in AmigaVendor if you don't already have it. Simply attach the
files, mail to yourself with AutoPilot and then retrieve them with WinCim (or
whatever) on your PC.
Let's see… anything I missed? There's sooo many ways to get a PC to
multitask. As long as you have an Amiga running next to it, that is. 🙂

Cross dos is complicated though, isnt it? I just want a nice easy way of saving
Amiga stuff onto a P>C and loading it into my P.C

Alan,

For that you need the disk drivers that come with CrossDos. They're put in
one's Devs:Dosdrivers. From then on, you can format disks in PC format (720K
for DD/DS more for HD) and copy files to and from your Amiga to those disks
forever using your normal Amiga commands and programs.
