Re: [SM] Matsushita Model CR-589-B, IDE

[Paul Corsa]

Both drives use the Apple CD/DVD driver? Have you tried just the 
Matsushita CD with the other CD unplugged?This should tell you if it 
works. Otherwise is sure sounds like an extension conflict. What OS are 
you running? You might also check the compatability lists aat OWC- 
readers post what items just won't play well together- some don't. Paul C

I may be wrong but I believe all CD drives need to run in the Master
position. If your card has openings for 2 cables use one for each CD
component as Master, ans a HD may be used on each cable in the Slave
position also. Paul C
   

Thanks Paul. You are correct. The card does have 2 cables. I use each cable
for each CD-ROM. 

I did move the jumper on the Matsushita to master, but the same problem
still persists after restart. Now the system doesn't read either CD-ROM and
the Matsushita's light stays on. It did not even blink at start-up.
