I have an acorn 3020 but it is not connected to the internet. I have lots of games such as Sf3000 ans SR2000 that have extra things that are only available from the internet. I have tried to transfer these things from my windows to my acorn but it will not let me as it complains about format. How do i get round this, is there any way for me to download something an acorn format on a windows and transfer it to my acorn?

thanks

Well, get some PC formatted floppy discs and copy the files you downloaded onto those discs and put them into your A3020 disc drive. It should be able to read the disc. You will have to set the RISC OS filetype and you will need something like SparkPlug to decompress the files.
