Hi Jeff, It is strange that it would work with cdrw's, but the Atapi DVD/RAM's also aren't listed as supported, so there might be something there. It might be easier for me to just buy a faster card then go through more headaches of playing musical cards. Besides, we had the same results when we plugged the card into the G4 AGP and he had no other pci cards installed. Card recommendations are welcome.
