Hi Jim, So far I've not been able to get this new CD to run at all. I can't even get the CD tray to open! (Should the tray open without a driver?) Yes, it should!!! It sounds like your CD is not in function at all! I will admit that the diskette that has the Dos driver on it is bad. So I can't install the newst Dos/Win driver. But I thought that I could at least get it to run under Linux. So I went into Yast, to sys admin, to inter. hardware into system, CD-rom Config, took the ATAPI/E-ide option, then took the master on controller 3 option. I took the controler 3 option (/hde) because I thought that that the first card has controler 1 and 2, but I may be wrong. BTW I put the new CD-Rom jumpers on master, but my old CD drive does not have jumpers at all. So I'm not for sure wether it should be master or slave. HDA - controller 1 master HDB - controller 1 slave HDC - controller 2 master HDD - controller 2 slave You must choose the available controller. If you have not any HardDrive on controller 2 you can choose HDC!! If you have some HardDrive on it you have know if it is master or slave. You can NOT have two "things" as master or slave on the same controller!!! I hope this helps! Vidor Sorry about the long post but I want to get all the info in front of you as possible. What do you think? TIA! J I M ----------------------------------------- Jim Hatridge Germany hatridge@straubing.baynet.de Proud Linux User #88484 !!!!!!!!!!
