I have a CreativeLabs x8 CD working that way with 2.1.5. *Don't* > have it connected to the SoundBlaster. Nadav is also correct here - the major source of problems is the Sound Blaster IDE controller; using a more standard IDE controller should stand a much better chance of working (hey Soren, speaking of which, have you received our cheque yet for the purchase of a Soundblaster CDROM combo and other assorted IDE drives? If not, let me know and I'll go yell at somebody :-) Jordan
