It's me again.  I posted last week about this problem and I am still having problems.  
The problem is that Warp no longer recognizes my cd-rom drive.  It worked fine for 
about two or three weeks and then it just stopped recognizing it.  Someone (sorry, I 
don't remember who you are) posted that they had the same problem but was able 
to fix it by changing the drive to master from slave.  How can I do this when the drive 
runs off of it's own controller card?  I have tried everything I can think of short of 
buying a new cd-rom.  If anyone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.
I really need to access my rom drive.  Here is a list of my system components again, 
maybe this will help too.
Aztech CDA268-01A 2X CD-ROM
486 DX2/66 Orchid motherboard (Intel chip)
Orchid Fahrenheit 1280 VLB
16 MB ram
Alpha Research Series 400 IDE Cache Contoller w/ 4 MB ram
Sound Blaster Pro
Seagate 212 MB HD w/ OS/2 intalled (HPFS partition)
WD 540 IDE HD w/ DOS and Windows (FAT partition)
Colorado Jumbo 250

Perhaps if someone else has had similar problems with another cd-rom they might 
know what to do.

Again, thanks in advance.
