Still on the secondary channel; when I get the chance I'll try it out on the primary.

My CDROM drive has a jumper setting for UDMA/33 mode which was enabled, but is not supported by my system, so I've adjusted the jumper to disable the UDMA mode on the drive. I've also dropped all the BIOS configuration settings for the drive to as basic as possible: 32-bit mode OFF, Block mode OFF, LBA mode OFF, Transfer mode PIO 0. I even disabled the HDD in the BIOS. None of this has resolved the problem. Wayne
