Jan,

You're welcome.

The smallest of the three is the floppy cable and will only fit the A drive.
The CDRW and zip, from what you say, are on one of IDE connectors. You
should therefore have one open spot on the cable with the HD.

Compaq should have a diagram of the motherboard on their site. It may take
awhile to wend your way through their tech support to find it but it should
be there. Microhouse used to have everything about everything ever made, but
that's probably changed. Anybody remember who would have all the hardware
info these days?

Andy,
Thanks for the info.  As I recall, there are 3 gray data cables.  I
think  the HD is on one, the A floppy is on another one, and the ZIP
goes with the (was the DVD ROM) CDWR.  The CDWR had to be set as a
master, so I couldn't connect it to the "A" floppy anyway and that cable
is very short.  I don't have a motherboard manual, I just have an
Internet PC User's Guide which doesn't help much.  I might be able to
find some info at the Compaq site.  They might even have a manual I can
download.

Again, thanks for the info.  I see that I have several choices to choose
from.

Jan
