Comment:

I'm trying to setup a CDRW master, CDROM slave on a PII 266MHZ Win98 system.
I don't have a sound card. The MB has only one CD-IN connector. What do I do about the audio cable for the slave? Does it need to be connected somewhere else? I think the 2 cables have slightly different wiring on the drive end between the two brands of drives.
Thanks

It in not really necessary to have both drives connected to the sound card/motherboard. Just use the drive that IS connected for audio CD playback. HTH
