To all: Price grabber alert:

5X DVD-ROM EIDE INT RETAIL KIT W/MPEG2 CARD & CABLES 2 TITLES

is $113 at Buy.Com. I bought one of these a couple of weeks
ago. Works great on NT, thought the literature says Win 98
required. Haven't installed the MPEG card (I'm not much into
videos) but there are NT drivers on the MPEG manufacturer's
web site.

In short, looks good for both NT and 98 (and 95 SR2) if
you're in the market for a DVD drive. It's also a moderately
fast CD drive, 16 or 20x I think, which may be fixed speed
because, nominally, 5x DVD is around 30x+ CD speed if I
remember the conversion correctly.

Not on my version. I have the downloaded version. I can't see anything, but there is instructions in the Acrobat file.

Maybe that's included with the CD version.
