Could you lift a tip of the veil and tell me some more about the 'other reasons' that you mentioned ? And when you say "using 1.0 with a Mitsumi" does that mean ALL mitsumi's, or just the FX001D ? If it means the first, I'll think I'll ask Walnut Creek for a refund or a 1.1 CD (not that the CD cost that much for what it has to offer, but still, buying a product that will _not_ work on hardware that it advertises it should work on ...) Anyway, I'm glad that I know now I wasn't doing anything wrong - i was really frustrated after having tried all irq/drq/address combinations ;-( Thanks, Florimon van Putte (florimon@sybase.com) (sorry, no clever .sig yet - working on it)
