I recently performed a couple of upgrades to my PC and now my X1541 cable does not work! Damn PC's! THe upgrades were a 486SX 33mhz to a 83 mhz Pentium Overdrive processor and a Double speed CD-Rom to a Quad Speed CD-rom with the addition of a CD-ROM Interface Card for the IDE connection. Based on the documentation I have been reading, I tend to think that the interface card may be screwing up something with the Sync of the Printer Port? Could this be? If that is the case, maybe I sould buy a Sound Blaster Sound card which has an IDE interface on it, or would the same results happen? Or, does a Pentium Overdrive Processor not work with the X1541 cable. I kinda find this hard to believe, but you never know. I have been using Star Commander which I thought automatically configures the timing for the PC. Do I need to slow the PC down? If so what is the best way. Any Help would be appreciated as I am sure my wife will not let me put the old parts back in the Computer! . ========================================================================= | Check out Web Page #64 at "http://www.channel1.com/users/amazon/" for | | lots of links, software and information about our Favorite Commodore | | Computer!.
