How do I run A500 games and install games on my A1200?

[HE-MAN]

Hi!

I wonder how to run my old A500 games on my new A1200. I is able to run some games that have a icon, but most of the games dosen't not have one.
My second question is how do I install games on my A1200 harddisk, so I don't have to use the game disks.

Glad for awser =D

Firstly, welcome to Amiga.org HE-MAN,

What you want to do is pretty easy due to some hard working people (I'm not one of them ;-) )
Visit www.whdload.de & read ALL about it.

You'll have to download the WHDLoad program (It's right there on the first page then go & download the installer for the games you want to install. It's really easy when you get going (Although SOME, not a lot, of the installers seem to be a bit "mad")

Good luck...
