Dave,

Have we established the physical configuration of the drives? My preference
would be to set both CD-RW's as slaves to the Primary & Secondary channels,
then let XP reconfigure the settings internally. This I have found has
worked very often.

I am running an LG CED 8080 B burner under Linux & Windoze XP Pro very
happily.

Regards,

AusMounty
