HI, hope this done does not break any rules and if so please let me know.

I have dug my A1200 out of retirement again after 30 years and have decided to do some upgrades. I bought a TF1230 and also bought the Amiga Forever 3.x Roms to go with it. Also got a new CF card ready to install everything then found that I can no longer read a few of the 3.1 disk I have from Amiga Forever just constant read errors. Have emailed them but have had no response as yet. I was wondering as they are legit and licenced can anybody let me know where to get downloads of them or ADF files so I can get my system up and running please.

Thanks in advance :)
 
I believe you can only legally download the adf's from where you obtained the roms/disks (might be wrong about that though).

I have had them a few years and cannot remember where I bought them from. Have emailed Amiga Forever (Cloanto) but no response as yet
 
You should have received a serial number or something similar when you ordered your AmigaOS 3.1 disks. I guess that you have to register them on Hyperion's website (https://www.hyperion-entertainment.com). From which merchant store did you buy this set?
I registered the serial number on the disks with Amiga Forever (Cloanto) the creators and have emailed them but no response as yet. I cannot remember where I bought them from as have had them for a few years now.
 
Did you register them on the Hyperion's site? If yes, try the download section, maybe you can download them as ADFs again.
 
If you own an original set of Roms and disks then technically you can use ADFs of the disk images to restore the copies, as you own the license buy owning the disks. It's a bit of a grey area obviously but not technically illegal in most countries. Not in the UK at least.

That's what I thought but just couldn't find them
