Hi all:
	As a new OS/2 user and a first time poster, I am looking for advice on
purchasing a CD-ROM drive that will run off of my PAS-16 soundcard and is
OS/2 compatible, so I think that it should be SCSI or SCSI-2 (advice on the
what these are would also be appreciated).  I have been getting
conflicting information from the stores in the Vancouver area as to what
drives do and don't work with OS/2, so I hope that there are some people
out there who have this setup working, and would be willing to share their
knowledge with me.
	I also have problems getting my PAS-16 to work properly so I would
like to know what the correct DMA and IRQ settings are to get it working
properly with OS/2. Again if you have this working please let me know.
	I need the CD-ROM drive so that I can reinstall OS/2 and make the
changes to get my PAS-16 working.  My system is a 486dx-33 with 8 megs, a
US robotics 14400 sportster faxmodem with the default settings on com2, and
a trident 8900 video card.

	Thanks in advance for your help, and sorry if I have asked a FAQ.
If you prefer to respond directly to me my E-mail address is:

					Cheers,
					Peter Siempelkamp.
