Hi,
I would appreciate some advice on my situation with the above. I am
operating WFWG 3.11 with a Wearnes Dual Speed CDD120 CD-Rom drive. This
is connected direct to the I/O card which also controls my HD.

The problem I have is that I cannot use the 32 bit Disk Access facility
in WFWG, with the CD-Rom connected this way. I have a 16 bit Mozart
Sound card which supposedly will accept the Wearnes CD-Rom. (Don't have
a cable yet as it is not a 40 pin connector on the sound card.) I have
spoken to Wearnes technical dept and was informed that I could try a
seperate interface card but this still may not allow 32 bit disk access.

Anyone else had the same problem? Will it work via the sound card? Any
help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Az
