The CDROM should be connected to one of the "standard" EIDE interfaces (*not* to a sound card like the SB16). It seems to be best to try it as the slave on the primary controller (this of course assumes you have a disk to act as master). It may also be possible to get it to work as the master on the secondary controller. Also, make sure there is a CD in it when you boot. I think the installation program might cares about that. > > I'd appreciate nay help... thanx! > > Chris > > Nadav
