Hi.  There are a lot of reasons that it might not work. I recommend to
not use 2 controller cards. They are almost always conflicting.  I
recommend to use the sound card as the controller.  You can also get a
fast ATA2 card which can control up to 4 devices. I have the Teac
cd-rom drive model 55A and use a Sound Blaster card. It is plugged
into the panasonic slot on the card. What type of sound card do you
have? Some sound cards are not compatible with some cd-rom drives. You
might need to find this out. If you have other ?'s e-mail me at
kkovac@jeffnet.org.
Later.   Kurt Kovac- Ashland, OR
