WHDLoad: doesn't launch, Grim Reaper stops it

I wanted to play a few old games I'd seen and it turned out I needed WHDLoad for it. So I download WHDLoad, followed the instructions on the website and now when I try to run WHDLoad (I haven't even been able to launch it at least once!) Grim Reaper takes over giving me DSI errors and it never launches.

Does anyone know what to do?

You try to start it in AmigaOS? i think you can only run it in UAE because it needs the custom chips, in AmigaOS those are not available.

You try to use WHDLoad on OS4? If yes, install it in OS3 drawer used by RunInUAE. Games will start by double-click on their icon.

Wow, what? I'm only using AOS for about a year, so I don't really know what you mean by that lol.

Whdload is written for Amiga computers, as are all the old games, they won't work on an OS4 machine, you'll have to run them in emulation.
