I just installed a Creative 52x cd-rom blaster in an IBM Aptiva with windows
98.
Looking on the creative site after entering some information, it shows me
these drivers for this 52x blaster drive:

sbide20.exe  Download Driver

Date: 19 Mar 1998  37257 bytes
SBIDE.SYS v2.0. Latest CD-ROM DOS Driver for Creative IDE CD-ROM Drives.
Now supports DMA mode in addition to Programmed IO.

Command line syntax has changed. See the README.TXT for more information.

NOTE: This driver may not work correctly with Panasonic (MKE) 574 and 581J
drives. Use SBIDE.SYS v1.21 for them.

1>Does this driver update apply to the 52x cd-rom blaster or should I be
happy with my windows drivers?

The cd-rom drive has worked great and I enabled the DMA option. It doesn't
do well when I try to sync the cd-rom drive with the computer.
Thanks and any support would be appreciated.
