Hmm, normally works if you just copy the files, there shouldn't be anything
magical that you need to do. If you got bak to the BSS floppies, remember
to install Blitz too :)

Very strange. Have you tried to look at the results without the Format
command (I know you need to use it, but just to check that Blitz on UAE is
calculating ti correctly)? Oh, and do you use the JIT versions of WinAUE?
Perhaps this is one of the situations where JIT causes bugs in teh Amiga
programs.

Doesn;t ToolsDaemon need a patch to run under OS3.9? Also, there are some
programs which just plain refuse to work under WinUAE for some weird
reason, MultiCX being one (and typically, one that I use :/ ).
