Help getting an SCSI cd drive working...
Need a bit of help here... don't know exactly what im doing, but i picked up an old pc, just to mess around with, finally got everything working but the cd drive... it just doesnt pick up, im using an old isa scsi card, adaptec AHA-1540cf or something along those lines, needing the cd drive to install everything, major pain without it, everything else is ide, basically i use the windows 98 boot disk, it doesnt come up with anything, tried downloading some drivers from the web and trying those, and a couple of boot disks, still nothing, any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

hmm, enabled the cd boot, but its still not working... unless theres some other means of booting onto the cd that i didnt see... and i really dont want to have to install windows in this box cause i want to get the hardware settings right, it was giving me major problems before i formatted it...

mmm nevermind, had to tweak some things in the bios, thanks though for just telling me to set that, it totally slipped my mind.
no pb...
Maybe the drive just does not work... =)
Sorry and good luck...
