I think you may have something here Brett, Yes they do share the same IDE
cable, one is Master , one is slave..
Problem is I also have a master & slave ide hard drive on the other cable..
I will try changing the cableing, did not know this was a problem, the book
does not tell of this potential problem of sharing two cdrom drives on the
same ide cable..
