Superdave,
  I will boot the computer tomorrow and write down the errors. As far as the SCSI
cards go I think I can still get a few _at_ PC Enterprises in Belmar, N.J.

 I just want to get the CDROM working, doesn't matter to me if I have any disks to
use now as I will try to find some DOS based CD's, I hope they exist.
