I finally got thru at 1:30 am pst this morning. Thanks for your thoughts tho'. I think it's an issue with win98. CD rom was included but system keeps asking for the driver. Will tinker with it today. Thanks for keeping us abreast on bargains. Have a good REST of the weekend, Regards, /jw

Dave, any thoughts on IDE CDRW drives? I am about to give up on my SCSI Ricoh 62xx drive. I still get a SCSI error message at the end of a write in my ABIT BH6/AHA2940U2W setup. I can't even install my Adaptec AHA2920 card in the ABIT board. It locks on boot. I tried all the slots. The 2940 card kinda works...for some reason the Adaptec SCSI bios will not load. I think I will try a Mylex BT-932 card dual channel SCSI card. I am off to the Pomona computer fair for the first time. I have a feeling I will spend some money. Sony makes an IDE RW drive 24X/4X/2X (buy.com $293). HP has the 24X/4X/2X 8100i (best price PriceWatch $308). Do you have a preference? Zeuspaul
