Connect an Amiga floppy to your PeeCee!
AFR is a project (program + schematic circuit) to connect Amiga external floppy to the PC parallel port and to create a .adf image for the great UAE emulator (thanks to all the people working around it). All you need is a PC with a BIDIRECTIONAL parallel port and some time to build the circuit. Note: on new mother board LPT can be configured as SPP, ECP and EPP. If the program is not able to read data at all, try changing this parameter in your machine bios setup. (On my machine AFR works only with SPP and EPP, but not with ECP). Moreover be aware of USB host controller: on some machine (like mine) it conflicts with the LPT port, so you have to disable it. I would be pleased to know if someone else build this circuit and to know how it works (my prototype is working quite fine). Obviously Amiga custom circuit are more flexible with old and almost rotten disks (some kind of real oversampling PLL is used inside of them), but even with my circuit you should be able to read almost all of your old disks. Some note about disk import speed:
P200 MMX Intel : 46 sec.
P100 Cyrix (no ext. cache) : 82 !!!!
