Hi, Well as you probiblay guessed from the subject of this post, I am looking to fit a laptop PC's PCMCIA CDROM drive into the PCMCIA slot on my A1200. I haven't got any software to let the amiga know that the drive is actually there. So I was also wondrering - if it was possible to fit it, where I could get the neccicary software from. This is becasue it seems a REAL shame to spend �50 - �70 to buy one with an IDE interface. ---------------------------------------- Andrew, ---------------------------------------- Visit my ever-evolving website @ http://www.computers39.fsnet.co.uk --------------------------------------- --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
