I called in for help and was suggested to ensure the CDROM is not on the soundboard and is configured as slave. The CDROM is connected to the mother board IDE port, and is defaulted as a slave. So what else can I do?? Also, what driver should I use? The CDROM is an Acer 8X. I do have the driver for it. I am using NT workstations and trying to have dual boot capability to also run BSD. I'd appreciate your quick response to my home email cybertang@worldnet.att.net thanks, Ed Tang
