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.
