I am running a web server on a machine that was originally to be a Email machine for some administrator. It is a GW2000 P5-60. Of course it has no SCSI card and the ATAPI cdrom in it dies after a CD has been mounted around 10 min or so. Very annoying, but I have learned to live without the CD. I would definately be a much happier user if it worked... I wish to thank Gary in advance for the work he is going to do in 'fixing' the CDROM code. (I think it was Gary.....) Jeremy
