Hi all;; Thanks for catching that Rom thing Bob. I forgot to include that in my reply to the original post. I'm running a Rev 1 MOBO with a Rev 3 Rom. Works like a charm. Drives added to ATA bus 1 are added as slaves. The CD must (should) stay as master (ID=0) on that bus. HTH P.S. Rom revisions are as follows: $77.40F2 = Rev.1 $77.45F1 = Rev.2 $77.45F2 = Rev. --Thanks; Rev.
