Thanks to the kind and useful advice gratefully received from many listers,
I'm about to do a complete brain transplant;
I'll be back online as soon as Frankenstein wakes up again ;-)
Thanks again,

Another question, now that I'm commited to completely reassemble my desktop.
I have two HDs, one CD reader and a CD ROM writer.
Which is the best plan ?
Put both HDs on the same channel, and the CDs on the other, or put the HDs
as masters on each channel, and the CDs as slaves ?
TIA,
Ron the
IDE channels are not multi-tasking, so only one drive can be accessed at a
time on one channel. I have 2 HDDs, a CD-ROM and a CD-RW drive. I have put my
fastest and largest HDD (larger is usually faster) as the primary master. My
other HDD is the secondary master. Fast hard drive access for me
