Why can I mount my PCs CD-ROM from WinUAE?
When you enter the configuration in the GUI’s Hard-Drives/Add dialogue make sure that you select “Directory” as the “Volume-Type”, don’t check the Read/Write gadget under “Settings” since you can’t write to a standard CD-ROM and don’t enter a trailing backslash in the “Mount Directory” path. This is the most common problem associated with mounting CD’s. If you use the browse button to find the path to your CD-ROM, WinUAE will automatically insert the trailing backslash. Delete it! I.e. you want “D:” not “D:\”. If the CD you’re using is not an Amiga disc and therefore doesn’t hold Amiga icons, you will have to select the “Window/Show/All Files” menu item in order to see the files.
