Dasiy, I would think that yor problem is more of a termination problem than one of IRQ's. The only IRQ in use by the SCSI system is the one for the controller. On a SCSI bus, there should be a termination resistor on either end of the bus. If you had a hard disk installed and the controller then both devices would have the terminator installed. Depending on where on the cable you installed the CD-ROM drive, you would either have to remove the terminator from the CD-ROM drive or from the Hard Disk. SCSI Controller ———–CD-ROM————Hard Disk Terminated No-Terminator Terminated Refer to the documentation for the location of the termination resistors. On the CD-ROM it maybe a switch or jumper you can remove. -Clarke
