I currently work for (summer job) the Skin Science Institute at the University of Cincinnati. We are invisigating the devolpment of Cellutite. I am kind of the "tech" person on this research project. One of the many insterments that we use in a Ultrasound prob that is hooked up to a OLD windows 3.1 machine. The prob is made by CyberDem, if anyone is interested. The scans that the prob makes are analized in 3D. Because of how the software was writen we can not use it on another machine. Simularly, we can not upgrade the operating system. We were tranfering all the information via zip, but it's to slow and has constant errors. So I searched for a CD-burner with a parallel cable and would be comparable with Windows 3.1. I found one. Microsolutions' Backpack cd-rewriter (194200). I just (today) recieved it. And of course, it ended up not being compadable. The computer can read CD which are placed into the drive, but can not burn anything. The only option that I see is to write a new driver for it (I write Linux drivers all the time), but I would perfer not to. Is there a driver or burning software out their which works with Windows 3.1? Do you have any other solutions. Feel free to either list your thoughts or email me at mbh0620@rit.edu .

old Nero software will work with SCSI drives...i am not certain of any IDE software for win3.1...although DOSCD-roast, I beleive has IDE support

Yes, the nero version 4 will work with win32s installed i dont recall the exact nero version that it stops being compatible, but i think its somewhere around 4.2 ish- finding it might take a dedicated google search or perhaps scour your local tech shops...i dont know if its optimized fir any particular burner either, as i have yet to hook up my adaptec burner and check it out myself on 31.. good luck in your search...

nero has demos on thier site im not sure that they still have 4.0. if its not on ths site, then try t access the ftp server, and find it in there.
