Hello, I'm a first time poster, but I've been reading the other questions with interest.
I've been trying to get a dvd player for my UMAX clone, and had tried to attatch it using Acard IDE PCI adapter. My Startup drive is also on the card, and what I thought was just a slave/master conflict could have been a software issue. Sometimes, I would connect the DVD drive and startup, to find that it wanted to format a disk (which was not in the DVD drive) which I thought meant that the drive was recognised, but the software could not read DVDS. I'm using 9.2.2 patched with the 'oldworld' support so that it runs on the UMAX. What extensions/libraries in 9.2.2 are required to view dvds? I've heard it's not possible to get any type of cd drive working with the PCI 'Acard' if you are running a hardrive off it already. In addition to this issue, I've never got the Tango 2.0 USB/Firewire card to work in the same UMAX, which I also suspect could be a software issue somehow. ANY help greatly appreciated!
