Stephen, the pinout for the CD in connector on the SBP is as follows: 1=Ground; 2=CD Left Channel; 3=Ground; 4=CD Right Channel; where pin 1 (marked as such on my board) is the left-most pin on the 4-pin CD audio connector when looking at the board with the back plate…

You might have a look at the newly published Oxford Handbook to the English Language, Jim, as one source of background for your review. (I'm writing this on a train in Indiana, having boarded last night in NYC, so I may not have the title exactly right.) It contains a…

I've spoken to NEC tech support about getting just that cable-connector combo twice since August, Monet. Both times they told me that NEC had ordered the cables and that they should be ready shortly. Both times they took my name and address to send one along when ready–the first time…

Thanks Alan. Think I will. Joe

>Are you somehow related to NEC? I don't think so–unless of course my mother's been hiding things from me. Joe

Hi Ed, I don't use OS/2, so I don't have any suggestions there. Have you tried a clean boot with DOS only? Just the system files, the Adaptec drivers and MSCDEX? Do you get any error messages when config.sys is loading the drivers? If you load ASPI4DOS and ASPIDISK with…

Hi David, If you really mean Fed Supp itself, with the West key numbers, squibs and case headers, that's copywritten material and would be available only from West or a licensee. I haven't heard that it's available, but you could check with West in Minnesota (Minneapolis, I think). There are…

Hi Dick, You may want to take a look at CD-ROM adds in Computer Shopper. Some vendors bundle disks with drives for a good price and you could always buy the sound card seperately from whatever vendor offers the best deal. If you go that route, I suggest you call…
#27777- NEC CDR74/adaptec 1542 Message #27900
From: Joe Knock CDROM Forum · Drives/Hardware October 1, 1992 8:35 AM
I don't know, David. Both the CDR-84 and the disk I drive with the 1542 are internal, and I haven't had occasion to use an external SCSI device with the card. But I read the 1542 manual the same way you do. You might want to post the question to…

From: Joe Knock CDROM Forum · Drives/Hardware September 29, 1992 10:12 PM
Haven't tried that so I don't know, David. I'm away from home and so can't check the manual, but my recollection is that it says the terminating resistors on the 1542 should be removed whenever both internal and external SCSI devices are attached, and not when all attached devices are…
