PhotoCDs and Archos CD drive...

Hi,

Today I received a note from a guy who is having
trouble loading reading PhotoCD disks with an
Archos CD drive. I`m not too certain of his setup,
but I presume the Archos is a PCMCIA device, and
is connected to a 2M chip, 4M fast ram A1200 with
100 MB HD.
Apparently when a PhotoCD is inserted into the drive
the computer crashes. Anybody have any ideas? I can
solve the problem of not having the right software to
import PCD images into Photogenics or whatever else, but
if the machine crashes before reading the files I can`t
do much about it.

I`d be very grateful if anyone could advise on
compatability problems with this drive, and
whether there are any new drivers to solve the
problem.

Thanks in advance,


Brett Burridge
