I've just purchased a new CD ROM drive (Sony ATAPI/IDE) & a ESS 16bit soundcard (1688 PnP).. I have installed them myself as I know a fair bit about PC's.. *but* it seems I just dont have the full knack as I cant get the CD to interface with the soundcard. If I set the CD drive to master & plug the interface into the soundcard, win95 recognises the presence of the soundcard but not the CD. If I daisychain the CD to the HDD (setting the CD as slave), win95 recognises both presences but you cant get audio out of the CD. The wierd thing is, the CD is *supposed* to be a Sony (altho it dont say that on the actual drive but I bought it from a reputable supplier & the drivers that came with it were Sony & they work with the CD), but the data cable that fits into the CD dont fit into the SOny interface on the soundcard.. I plug it into the Panasonic one (does this make a diff??) Can someone help me PLEASE!!! (btw, what is the CSEL setting on the CD next to the master & slave jumpers??)
